<p><em>Good Morning,</em></p>
<p><em>My friend and I recently wrote a tune called &#8220;Cupidz Bow&#8221; about what we thought was an imaginary story about a couple falling in love after meeting in Halo. While researching the song, we discovered your web site and thought that you might enjoy the song <img src='http://amatchmadeinhalo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  It is available to listen to at <a href="http://godzpoodlz.bandcamp.com/track/cupidz-bow">http://godzpoodlz.bandcamp.com/track/cupidz-bow</a></em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We received this letter on youtube the other day and we&#8217;re excited to share&#8230; </p>
<p><em> I just want to say congrats. I&#8217;m glad you both found one another. I met my fiance through Halo 3. A week after I got my Xbox 360. We spoke numerous of times and joked around about having a Halo 3 wedding. We didn&#8217;t expect to fall in love. But we did. Now we are together with a wedding in less than a year. Our anniversary Jan 23rd, 2011.</p>
<p>But I have to thank you both. I wanted the Halo 3 wedding, and Alex (my fiance) wasn&#8217;t sure about it at first. We started discussing things about it. Like what we&#8217;d actually use for it. Then after we decided on the wedding theme. I saw about your wedding. Thank you for inspiring me further.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Tricia</p>
<p>P.S. Bungie is good at matchmaking without meaning to. I know of 3 other couples that all got together via Halo (Either Halo 2 or 3, or ODST)</em></p>
<p>Tricia,<br />
Please let us know if there is anything we can help you with. It was a pleasure hearing from you. =)<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Sick &#038; Psycho</p>

My Name is Carolina &#8230;..I&#8217;m 25 from Modesto , Ca. ( GamerTag LilMissEsco ) and I just saw your story on MTV and I had to send you an email to say congratulations On your wedding! I also met my boyfriend on Halo 2 and your story just made me smile&#8230; I WAS having a bad day but seeing the clips of your big day just made me feel so much better!  Its funny cause My Boyfriend and I have been playing together for about 2 years and we&#8217;ve been dating for 1 and everyone finds it funny that we met like that but I must say that its made our relationship alot stronger  <img src='http://amatchmadeinhalo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   when we first got together, On my myspace I put the motto of my profile as &#8221; A match Made In Halo&#8221; Hahaha&#8230;. I got a big kick out of seeing that you had that same theme for your wedding <img src='http://amatchmadeinhalo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  We even Have similar insignias, My boyfriend has the Valkery symbol and I have the plain heart.  &#8230;  <img src='http://amatchmadeinhalo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  So needless to say that the whole thing hit close to home <img src='http://amatchmadeinhalo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   But anyways&#8230; again I just wanted to wish you guys all the happiness in the world&#8230;  Best wedding ever!!! Congrats!! Hope that you both score a &#8220;Perfection&#8221; in your doubles game!</p></blockquote>
<p>Carolina,</p>
<p>Thanks for the congratulations! We’ve gotten quiet a few messages from other couples who met playing Halo 2. What most people don’t realize is that love can blossom under any circumstances if people allow it to. Too many people close themselves off from new experiences. But we know better don’t we? </p>
<p>-Sick</p>

<blockquote><p>Hey I know it&#8217;s random but I just had to say congrats on your wedding!<br />
I came across your story on geekology and found it completely heart warming!</p>
<p>It even gave me the courage to reconnect with my best friend. (We had met through on online game and had been together for years before finally realizing we had to give up our love while we finished college.) I sent him an e-mail about the story and it got us talking even more and now we&#8217;re even trying to set up more game times. </p>
<p>your story is not only adorable it&#8217;s inspiring! I wish you two the best of luck!</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>
Hi,</p>
<p>I&#8217;m probably like the five hundred other random people emailing you, but I am planning a wedding, too. I love how yall are making it completely unique to you! We have a much different passion in life<br />
(sailing) and are infusing that into our wedding in every way possible. But, I would like (trying to cut back on &#8220;want&#8221;) everything to be &#8220;us&#8221; and everyone to be there to take part in our day (no weekday wedding for us, either).</p>
<p>I am going to start stalking your blog from today on, because I think you both are great inspiration to keep everything less expected. <img src='http://amatchmadeinhalo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  I am really excited to see how yalls day turns out and I hope it is wonderful!</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Katy</p>
<p>PS- Where&#8217;d yall find the Gocco?</p></blockquote>
<p>Katy,<br />
I actually found the Gocco on Etsy. But if you can&#8217;t find it there you can always try Ebay. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Keep em comin&#8217; guys! We love hearing from you. </p>
<hr />
<p><em>I happened to decide I wanted to check Twitter again and noticed that your Twitter account was following mine. Went to the site and I love your idea of a Halo themed wedding, I have been a fan of the series since the launch date of Halo: CE. But unfortunately I can not offer much, financially I am tied down and I can&#8217;t offer to help with making replicas. I hope this works out for you guys because I wanna hear about it on the news or on one of the Bungie updates on Bungie.net. Go get &#8216;em soldiers, and most importantly&#8230;Believe. The series may have been a few games, but to those who listened and dug into the story layed in between each encounter&#8230;a message was laid out. Many in fact. I want to end this e-mail with a quote that I feel conveys just a small portion of the message these games leave in their wake.</p>
<p>Lord Hood: [at the end of the game] For us, the storm has passed. The war is over. And let us never forget those who journeyed into the howling dark, and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure. Sacrifice, an unshakeable conviction that their fight&#8230; *our* fight&#8230; was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They enobled all of us, and they shall not be forgotten.</p>
<p>And with that I will end this e-mail before it gets too long, I hope to see you two in the game and best of luck to you with the wedding.</p>
<p>Shadow Ryo Nightfall</p>
<p>Gamertag: Ryokea Hakubi</em></p>
<hr />
<p><em>Just wanted to wish ya’ll a big Texas sized GRATZ! On your engagement and soon to be wedding!<br />
I have been a big fan of the Halo universe since it came out for the Xbox. To see fellow gamers buck the “trend” and go HALO on the traditional (for the most part) wedding service. </p>
<p> Gratz again to you and your bride to be and many happy years of Halo and reality (don’t forget to eat eh!).</p>
<p> Dwayne</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve been getting a bunch of emails lately and I felt some of you might enjoy reading them. It&#8217;s wonderful to hear about so many other couples that met playing Halo as well!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll start with 1 for now, but I may just make this a weekly post if we continue to get enough participation. So be advised if you write to us there&#8217;s a good chance we might blog about your email.</p>
<blockquote><p>Hello!</p>
<p>I just stumbled across your website from gamertagpics.com.<br />
I love your website. I can really relate to your situation seeing as how I am in love with a person I met back in Halo 2.</p>
<p>After you raise enough money, you could turn the website into couples who met on xbox live. That would be really neat. </p>
<p>Sorry that I cant donate anything, but I do wish you two the best of luck with all that you two do!</p>
<p>Congratulations!<br />
You have to post pictures whenever you get married. </p>
<p>Jessica
</p></blockquote>
<p>Jessica, your idea sounds pretty cool! I’ll be sure to discuss it with PsychoVandal to see what he thinks. </p>
