There’s a fine line between boredom and creativity, and it’s a line we’ve become all too familiar with in this pandemic. As we’re all looking for weirder and weirder things to pass the time until the outside world becomes a safe place again (hah – as if it ever was!), it’s only a matter of time before we end up depleting the pool of creativity.
Arabella and Sam, an American couple, found a way to do something
creative with the Covid-19 setbacks and decided to recreate their
engagement in the best way possible.
The couple got engaged back in September but now find themselves
being one of the many couples that can’t plan their wedding because
of the Covid-19 pandemic. Wedding venues aren’t really having
visitors right now, so the wedding is pretty much at a standstill.
They did have a nice stack of engagement pictures however, and they’re apparently fans of the Animal Crossing game. Adding one and one together, they decided to use the limitless capabilities of what’s in the game to recreate those pictures. And let’s be honest: the result is nothing short of amazing.
The couple apparently got the idea from building Blather’s museum
and noticing how especially the butterfly area looked very similar to
one of the areas they took their pictures in. Despite their pictures
being taken at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, that didn’t
stop them one bit. Once they saw that even the shoes Arabella wore
were available in the game, it was pretty much meant to be.
It’s no surprise that these extremely adorable pictures went viral
in no time. The internet loved every bit of it, and I’m sure it was
somehow therapeutic for the couple too. At least now they can kind of
work on their wedding.
We hope that once Covid-19 blows over, Arabella and Sam will be able to plan their wedding like they originally intended to. And I think pretty much the entire internet agrees with me if I say that we kind of want them to recreate the wedding pictures in Animal Crossing too. At this point, I’d actually go shopping for wedding clothes in the game first, just to make sure that they can make it happen. Do it for the internet, Arabella and Sam!
