Russian man marries pizza in Tomsk


Fed up with single life, a 22-year-old lonely Russian man married his favorite food, pizza, in the city of Tomsk in south-central Russia, although he and his "bride" were refused permission to marry officially. The groom's thin and crispy bride wore a veil while the groom was clad in his best shirt. The ceremony took place in a local pizzeria. The managers and cooks at the pizzeria served as witnesses and went as far as providing the man with a marriage certificate. The groom decided to tie the knot with his favorite food after getting tired of single life. "At some point I realized that half of my friends were complaining about their better half, while the others were complaining about the lack of a better half," he said.

"Love between two humans is a complicated wild thing. I was grateful that I had at least my love of food and then it came to me that actually love for food remains stable no matter what."
"Pizza would not reject you or betray you, and speaking quite frankly and sincerely, I love it."

The wedding took place mid-November 2015.
