MY FIANCÉE WANTS OUR AI COMPANION TO OFFICIATE THE WEDDING

we wanted a fun personalized ceremony, so my fiancée suggested using our favorite ai character to read a short introduction. i thought that sounded cute

then she suggested letting it perform the entire ceremony, including the legal vows. i told her we should check the actual requirements and hire a qualified officiant rather than hoping a laptop could sign documents

she said the machine had already written better vows than anyone she'd interviewed. i agreed it could help with the script and music cues, but not replace the person legally responsible for the ceremony

we booked a human officiant and gave the ai a short theatrical reading. the officiant laughed so hard at the robot's joke about battery life that we nearly missed our cue
