HOW FAT CAN A GROOM GET?


It was a very big fat wedding for the world's fattest man, Manuel Uribe, 43, who married his his long-term girlfriend, hairdresser Claudia Solis in Mexico on Sunday October 26th, 2008.

Manuel Uribe who once weighed over 1000lbs, was named the world's fattest man by the Guinness Book of Records in 2007. Although Manuel has been losing weight gradually but he has remained confined to his bed which he has not been able to leave in the past four years. However that did not stop him from making the 30-minute trip to the civil ceremony at a makeshift altar in a local town hall in his home town of Monterrey, Mexico.

Manuel Uribe was dressed in a white satin shirt and with a sheet covering his legs while his bride was wore a strapless ivory satin dress, a tiara and holding a bouquet of fresh lilies, looked equally as excited, smiling for the swarm of international photographers. As the couple was declared husband and wife, Mr Uribe broke into tears later saying that "I have a wife and will form a new family and live a happy life." For the traditional first dance as newlyweds, the newlyweds held hands and swayed to a romantic ballad. For wedding limousine, Manuel Uribe, a former car parts dealer was transported to the wedding on a specially-reinforced four-poster bed, draped with cream and gold and adorned in bright sunflowers, on the back of a truck left. Mr Uribe's doctors were among the 400 guests at the wedding reception which had a "low-calorie banquet" with meat, creamed mushrooms and buttered vegetables.

Icheoku says how much fat could a man pack when women are always derided for being fat? Is it fair enough for a man to be this fat on his wedding day and will that be ok for the bride? Anyway, on matters of the heart, only the parties know what attracted them to each other. On this note Icheoku wishes this amazing couple Manuel Uribe and his lovely wife Claudia Solis Uribe happy married life. However, Icheoku will keep its antennas up to learn how they eventually start their proposed family, especially the copulation aspect of it!
