Custom Super Mario World game used to propose

Adam created a specialized playable version of Super Mario World that culminated in a marriage proposal to Desiree, who explains:

Saturday September 11th…he tells me he’s been playing around with programming video games. I think this is an awesome idea; he has been so busy at work that I have been trying to motivate him to do something that makes him happy. So he tells me, play my game, I put a spin on Super Mario World.

So, I start to play the game; It is now called ‘Super Dez Word’ I get through 5 levels no problem, and even found the secret level. All the levels had names that I recognized from things we have talked about, favorite movies, etc. Well, the last level is where I started having problems. Like every video gamer, I got frustrated and didn’t want to play, but he was so persistent to get me to finish this level. So together we finished it ( he doing most of the work…) then it goes to the little cut scene and says “what is next for the hero”…so I go to the next level and a black text box pops up with white lettering that said “Will you marry me”…

Link roundup

1. Win Castle Crashers toys.

2. From an LA Times article about lavish Persian-American weddings:

As guests enjoyed hors d'oeuvres outside the banquet hall, the bride was placed in a glass coffin. The groom fitted on a white half-mask. Then, the carefully planned "Phantom of the Opera" theme devolved into chaos.

Condensation formed inside the coffin as guests delayed filtering in. When the groom finally took his cue to present the bride, the lid wouldn't budge. Before long, he was slamming the glass trying to break through as the bride wailed inside, her makeup running down her face. It would be an hour before she was finally freed.

Wedding proposal that's frozen in time

In an episode of Put a Ring On It, the cast stopped time in a restaurant for a wedding proposal. Fast forward to five minutes in for the proposal, although it's also fun to see if you can catch the groom peeking at the host's cleavage during the planning phase.

They were inspired by Improv Everywhere's Frozen Grand Central:
