Ashley Davis and I were married last week. This post will highlight my favorite moments of the ceremony, just in case you couldn’t make it but for some reason are desperate to know what happened.
You can also check out SenorDoucheoisie’s Destructoid post for video of the actual ceremony, as well as an adorable/awesome WarioWare microgame he made to commemorate the event. In honesty, his post is more comprehensive and detailed than this one will be, so you might just wanna read that one.
After the ceremony itself — officiated by Aaron Linde, who read out of Half-Life 2: Raising the Bar instead of a Bible as Davis and I are atheists — we had a celebratory water gun fight, beginning with a Mexican standoff wherein my “friends” all proceeded to point their water guns directly at my crotch. Then Grant threw Ash into the pool because Grant.
Ash bought some airbrushed shirts from the mall as wedding presents. This one is mine — the other one just says “Blavis” and is Ashley’s, except I ended up wearing it on the actual day of the wedding before switching into my typical shirt/tie combo.
Every third person I spoke to after donning said shirt wanted to know where the “L” in “Blavis” came from.
Christina’s wedding present for us — a painting of a Davis, a Dusty, and a Brownie.
Tony “Megastryke” Ponce’s present for me — a Genesis game about creating art (an “artgame,” one might say) and the Uwe Boll Far Cry movie (since the words “Far Cry 2″ tend to leap out of my mouth everytime it’s open for more than a few seconds).
A cigar, given to us by the Golgotron crew. I don’t smoke, but rest assured that Papa Burch smoked the shit out of that thing.
After all the shenanigans at the house — pizza, Street Fighter IV, Rock Band, and cupcakes — we moved the party to Castles N’ Coasters and spent a few hours in the arcade playing games and lamenting the fact that the fucking Star Wars machine was broken.
All in all, Davis and I had a wonderful time, and we hope that everyone else did, as well. I’m pretty sure we thanked everybody who came or helped out, but just in case we didn’t: thank you. The wedding meant a lot to us, and it wouldn’t have been anywhere near as fun if everyone who showed up, hadn’t.
Congratulations.
Insert some crap comment here, if you like, I am all out.

Since you guys are down with the H-star-R.
Congratulations! I hope you’re both very happy together.
Congrats!
that sounds like an awesome wedding!
I wonder if conservatives would shit bricks if they realized atheists get married too?
Congratulations guys! Sounds like a damn good wedding!
Why can’t you stupid internet fucks try to be nice people for once in your goddamn lives?
I only have one thing to say to you: I forgive you.
As for the two-and-only Team Blavis, CONGRATULATION!
THE WINNERS ARE YOU!
Oh, nice! Somebody removed the rude comment I was replying to!
Well don’t read the top two lines of the above comment, then.
1. 33333 – get the hell out.
)))
2. CONGRATS!!!!!!
that 1st pic is high-larious.
you should definitely try smoking cigars. It was obviously not a cold day, so smoking with a cooler full of beer is heaven.
good luck.
Leave it to the internet to have people post hate comments on something about a wedding. Woo internet.
Getting back to the celebration-esque-ness. Congrats guys. Looking forward to more comedy from you guys. And far more goofing off too.
Congratulations!! I wonder if Davis will turn into a frigid bitch now that she’s got Anthony locked down. Time to let the hair down and the claws out.
P.S. That last pic is mega-win FOREVERRRRRRRRZZZZzzzZZzZzzzzzzZZZZ..
Many congratulations, and all the best in your endeavors to watch your wife pee!
Grats
Now bad to working on the videos that make me laugh 
I gotta know after going to the Senor’s blog and checking out the videos, did you and Davis plan out your vows together?
congrats dude. most unique wedding i’ve ever heard of
Epically sad I couldn’t make it to the wedding. But epically happy that things turned out nicely. I was crying laughing last night, when I watched the video, at the “I promise not to put it in your butt–” part. Yes, good times.
I sent an email about sending off a late gift. Yup…
congrats, anthony! i expect you two to be the coolest married couple in the gaming industry and continue to contribute amazing wonderful things to this nerdy little world.
also, i second mr. saget’s question regarding the vows. that was fucking hilarious.
fyi cigars are cool. I hate smokers but tried them recently and found them to be cool. Kind of like wine tasting.
also …uh…oh yeah congrats.

It’s pretty bad when you have to lie in your vows….we all know damn well the second they left Ashley went to town on his ass…
congrats guys, i really wish i couldve gone to hang.
may you have many years of happiness and then decades of disposition and secret hubris towards one another, thats what marriage is right? naw, but srsly nothing but the best wishes
Grats, duder, that’s awesome. Does that mean you’ll be multiplying soon?
Oh yeah, the secret to marriage is about having two televisions, blah, blah, congratulations again.
Nice hair, tool.
Also, best vows ever?
I don’t come up on the net for a week or two cuz of work and look what happens… figures.
Congrats and best of luck.
Your’s sincerely
A guy from the eastern block.
Congratulations!
Also, I’ve undertaken some research, and common consensus seems to indicate that regardless of being married to a woman and working for a mainstream games company, you’re still our indie fag.
Is Blavis Arrested Development reference? Because that’d be cool. Well not cool, but…whatever that would be. It’d be that.
Congrats! By your powers combined, we’ll have awesome!
AINTCHU GUYS BRUDDA AND SISTA? gross.
Hope happiness
Congratulations guys!! from El Salvador!!
