Rosemarie
&
Eric
The wedding's theme is based on The Legend of Zelda, a wildly popular video game series by Nintendo.
Over the many decades and dozens of titles, the Zelda series has achieved a distinct "feel" that emphasizes exploration, adventure, and heroism, where the player takes control of Link, a green-clad pointy-eared (and pointy-hatted) hero who ultimately comes to wield the Master Sword to strike down Ganon, thereby saving Zelda and-or the land of Hyrule.
While some of the games feature the same Link, Zelda, and Ganon as a previous title, most games reimagine these characters "reborn" in new bodies and settings, wielding or seeking the powers of Courage, Wisdom, and Power, respectively. The player often starts with Link coming from humble beginnings, with nothing to his name but his stylish green tunic and a rusty (or wooden) sword as he sets off to vanquish the evils of the realm. Along the way, he picks up fantastical new items and abilities that allow him to traverse increasingly complicated puzzle-filled dungeons and solve the many ills plaguing the different peoples of the world.
Rosemarie and Eric both spent untold hours playing the original Legend of Zelda game in their childhood. The wedding's theme reflects the sense of whimsical adventure of the series, where high fantasy meets a colorful world filled with memorable characters and engaging challenges, where courage and persistence always yield a happy fairytale ending.
