STAR WARS WEDDING - TORONTO STYLE


The Internet being what it is there is a preponderance of cute stuff: Cats, photos, photos of cats, video of cats...

My first response to seeing this headline "Star Wars-themed wedding photo turns Toronto couple into Internet stars" on the Toronto Star website, was to not respond at all. "Yeah, I get it; Star Wars fans and their cute little homages."

Until I decided to click.

Toronto couple Leslie Seiler and Paul Kingston accepted photographer Tony Lombardo's "brainwave" to have them run across an intersection during a lull in traffic. The newlyweds and their party snapped into inspiration and history was made: They have become somewhat of an Internet Sensation.

Good for them!

By the way, the AT-ATs ("All-Terrain Armored Transports") were popped into the picture afterwards; although I'm sure some Toronto drivers wish they had the famous Star Wars vehicles to get around the city in. "Problem solved."
