Viva Pinata proposer tying the knot today with game-themed cake
We all had our hearts warmed last year when we heard of David Rosowski's delightful approach to nuptial queries -- the young man proposed to his girlfriend Jenn by sending her a diamond and question-popping note in Viva Piñata, immediately following up with a bended knee and a real-life rock. Nearly seven months later, their wedding day has come, and after trading vows upon a cruise ship, the two will chow down on a matrimonial pastry topped with a Horstachio and a veiled Pretztail (two of the game's more recognizable papier-mâché critters). You can watch their big day unfold on David's YouTube channel, if you have nothing better to do this Saturday morning. We here at Joystiq HQ won't be in virtual attendance, but we'd still like to wish David and Jenn a long and happy marriage, full of fulfilled romance requirements and bushels of joy candy.

Miis invade weddings
Sure, everybody loves Miis, but would you let your sister marry one?* Over at Mike Nelson's 1UP blog, there's a short piece on the best use of Mii sculptures yet -- as wedding cake toppers! Even if you think that Miis are getting a little too much exposure these days (they really are everywhere), it's hard to resist the idea of Mii wedding cake toppers. For a Nintendo-loving couple, we can't think of a better choice, and if you want an irreverent likeness on your wedding cake, there's no comparison. *It occurs to us that this old joke is really starting to show its age ... not only because of the prejudicial undertones, but really, modern brothers get no say in who their sisters marry, amirite? This "let" business needs to go!
