1 year Anniversary looking back at PLUR GRR & Kelas Rave Wedding
Palisades State Park, Garretson, SD, USA
PLUR GRR and Kela tied the knot in a truly unique and unforgettable wedding ceremony that embodied the spirit of love, unity, and positivity. The day began with us picking up our editor-in-chief, signaling that this was not your typical wedding.
The crowd at the wedding was adorned with colorful pashminas, setting the vibrant and energetic atmosphere. The ceremony was officiated by our homie Derik, who shared anecdotes about his long-standing friendship with Paul (PLUR GRR) since college. He spoke in the language of PLUR - peace, love, unity, and respect - emphasizing the importance of unity throughout the ceremony.
Derik highlighted that Kela was the perfect match for Paul, praising her artistic nature. The couple gave out fan gifts, along with instructions to post photos online, symbolizing the connection and sharing of love beyond the wedding day. To emphasize his point about intangible connections, Derik even brought out a tape measure, humorously using it as a prop.
Food was also incorporated into the ceremony, with Derik drawing comparisons between different types of bonds, like hot dogs and donuts, emphasizing that not all connections produce the same results. The couple was given small magnetic heart stones to hold and reflect on their pure intentions, returning them to Derik. When the stones stuck together, it was a physical representation of their compatibility.
During their vows, PLUR GRR expressed how his heart and soul were urging him to be with Kela, and how he had always dreamt of finding someone like her. They spoke about the incredible memories they had created together and their commitment to navigating the universe side by side, creating their own sacred geometry.
Kela's vows touched on their journey of dancing around each other until everything fell into place. They acknowledged the challenges they had faced together, navigating through darkness with their spiritual light, and weathering storms until the sun shone again. Kela expressed her admiration for PLUR GRR and her determination to be the best version of herself with him by her side.
After the vows, there was a moment of lightheartedness when my wife, Hope, expressed her disappointment that no one was clapping. Derik, sensing the same sentiment, called for a moment of applause, bringing smiles and laughter to everyone present.
The highlight of the ceremony came when Derik brought out his unity triforce patch, a symbol of togetherness, and declared it was time for the couple to exchange rings. With Derik's characteristic flare, the couple said their "I Dos," sealing their commitment to each other amidst cheers and applause.
After the ceremony, we spent some time together with our friends, finally saying our goodbyes before heading off to the second day of the Breakaway Music Festival, a fitting celebration to continue the festivities in the spirit of love, unity, and joy.
PLUR GRR and Kela's wedding was truly a rave celebration of love, where their unique personalities and the principles of PLUR were at the forefront. Their ceremony was a testament to the power of unity and the importance of finding someone who brings out the best in us. As they embark on their journey together, may they continue to create their own sacred geometry and inspire others to embrace the spirit of PLUR in their lives.
