A Dubai based couple has decided to be married in the metaverse after legal problems arising from their nationalities initially forced them to tie the knot in Georgia in 2019. After the wedding, the couple said they will use their own experience to help others get married in the metaverse as well
The Metaverse After Wedding Party
After confronting legal problems registering their marriage, Florian Ughetto, a French national residing in Dubai and his fiancee, Liz Nunez, were reportedly planning to wed in the metaverse on May 19. The couple said the decision to tie the knot in the metaverse is nearly three years after they got married in Georgia.
The Blockchain Group, reports that the couple’s wedding outfits were acquired via Opensea, a non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace. The report also reveals that close to 20 of the couple’s closest friends would join them via the metaverse.
Further, the report explains the steps that the couple will take exchanging vows. The soon-to-be husband and wife would go to a location in the metaverse for the after-wedding party.
Metaverse Wedding Company
As per the report, the couple got married in Georgia in 2019 after they confronted problems registering their marriage, locally due to their nationalities.
“That is one of the reasons why we chose to fly to Georgia to register our marriage,” the report quotes Ughetto explaining.
Meanwhile, the report said the couple has since established their wedding planning company that will specialise in virtual weddings. The couple hopes to use their metaverse wedding experience as a test run.
While the final cost of the ceremony has not been revealed, the report estimates this to be over $800 or DH3,000.
