PR - Link and Zelda Get Married at GameStop on Memorial Day Weekend

May 25, 2015



Yesterday, at a GameStop store in eastern Pennsylvania, Robert Piazza and Christa Slayton,



lifelong fans of Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series, tied the knot dressed as their favorite Nintendo characters, Link and Princess Zelda. With their family and closest friends in attendance, also dressed as Nintendo characters, the two walked down the aisle of the store where they first met.





It all started when they met at a Mario Kart 8 tournament early last year. The two instantly fell in love, and, this past October, Robert decided to propose to Christa at that same GameStop store. Now a year later, the two were wed in the place that began it all. Dressed in a beautiful Zelda-inspired wedding dress, the bride was accompanied by her groom and full wedding party.





After the wedding ceremony, guests took part in a competitive Super Smash Bros. for Wii U tournament as an homage to how the bride and groom first met. Nintendo provided gift bags for guests full of items inspired by The Legend of Zelda series, including Zelda playing card decks, Master Sword sour candies, paper Majora's Masks and Wii U lanyards, as well as offering a variety of items for winners of the Super Smash Bros.competition.
