Bridal couple plan to marry in a cemetery

Couple Plan to Get Married and Tie the (noose?) Knot in a Graveyard...!!!

Bride and Groom want to marry in a graveyard.
Does that give new meaning to the words "until death do us part"

Chaplain Bob's comments: I do not know if this couple are goth or not goth. This would not unusual among the goth community - they like the unusual and non-traditional. It is their wedding day, so enjoy it the way you wish. The gothic community comes up with all kinds of different ways to look at things.

I am happy to perform most any kind of wedding...
Just do not ask me to sacrifice an animal on an altar to Satan halloween night....gotta draw the line somewhere.

Groom, Scott Amsler and his bride to be,M iranda Patterson want to have an unusual marriage ceremony in a graveyard. I guess you could say that this is thinking outside the pine box or coffin.

This September the couple hopes to say their vows among the fallen and those who passed on in a city cemetery.

The groom Mr. Amsler, who is 27, works in the computer field in the daylight and works on old hearses as it is darkness.

The bride and groom insist that they are not a couple of freaks or satanists or in some kind of crazy cult...it is just our style.


This couple met on a blind date and it did not take long for them to believe that they belonged with each other.

They insisted on a wedding in a gazebo and saw one in the graveyard.
they say that the view was beautiful from the hilltop in the cemetery.
The bride said that this was where she wanted to have her wedding ceremony, in the graveyard.

The cemetery had been used since the time of the war between the states or more commonly known as the civil war. They had to get permission from the group in charge of the cemetery and was given access for their wedding.


The bride is quoted as saying "We're not going to do anything stupid or horrible. We just want to have a wedding".

Comment: I have seen dead people get married and some marriages seem dead from the very day they say their vows....

I wish this couple the best in life...
