16-year-old Lexie Roessler gave the Twitterverse a healthy kick of heartwarming, funny nostalgia when she tweeted about her parents’ wacky wedding. It was 25 years ago that they decided to invite all of their friends to a Halloween costume party that secretly doubled as their wedding.
According to Lexie, her moms dad had passed away shortly before the wedding so she wouldn’t have anyone to walk her down the aisle. That along with the realization that they didn’t want a bunch of gifts, but rather just to simply have their closest friends have an unforgettable time, prompted the idea for the surprise costume wedding. They had just hoped that people would truly deliver, and boy, did they deliver.
To make things even better, her dad can now always say that the best man at his wedding was dressed up as Dracula during the ceremony.
