The cult of Pokemon knows no bounds.
The franchise saw a revival when Pokemon Go broke out on phones all over the world. With Singaporeans travelling great distances to Punggol just to catch a Snorlax, we have good reason to believe they might travel to Japan just to get Pikachu to officiate their wedding.
Except it didn’t exist until now.
On 29 May 2019, the official Pokemon Japan site announced the official launch of the “Pokemon Wedding Plan”, a Pikachu-themed wedding package.
First up, you will have a traditional wedding ceremony in your white gown and tuxedo. But instead of a religious leader you paid no heed to until your wedding, a male and female Pikachu dressed in matching wedding regalia will come forth to congratulate you and your partner.
You will also receive a wedding certificate printed with illustrations of Pikachu—but we can’t be sure the Registry of Marriages in Singapore will recognise it.

It doesn’t stop there, Pokemon fanatics.
Pikachu is hell-bent on crashing your wedding, so he will be present in many aspects of your dinner service as well.
There have been multiple Pokemon events in Singapore just this year alone, so why stop at fun fairs and carnivals?
With Singaporeans’ thirst for all things Pokemon, let’s pray to Mewtwo that the Pokemon franchise can infiltrate all aspects of our lives—from cradle to grave, and our favourite social celebration—weddings.
