1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,639
Speaker 1: Well, folks, I guess it was only a matter of time.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: I guess it was inevitable. Thirty seven year old Erica Anderson,

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 1: recently a bride. Her New York City wedding was picture perfect.

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: She wore beautiful white dress. She walked down the aisle

5
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: with the bouquet flowers, with the Brooklyn Bridge in the

6
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: New York City skyline behind her, and it was time

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: for Erica to take the big step, which she did willingly.

8
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: She took her wedding vows with herself. Right, my friends,

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: she married herself solo. Gammy is what it's called slogamy.

10
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: Miss Anderson is part of a new and growing trend

11
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: called pulogamy. Happy bride later discussed her big day and

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: what it meant to her. I would describe it as

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: women saying yes to themselves. She said, it means that

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: we are enough, even if we are not partnered with

15
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: someone else. Is it misser Mrs Anderson, I don't know whatever.

16
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: She revealed that she had gotten tired of friends and

17
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: family asking when she was going to get married, so

18
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: in front of them, she tied the knot to herself

19
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,919
Speaker 1: by herself, with herself. Now, before you brush this office,

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: pathetic or the ultimate expression of narcissism. Here's the thing,

21
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: miss Mrs Anderson is not alone in a manner speaking.

22
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: Businesses have sprung up eager to help selogamists create their

23
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: perfect wedding days. Some companies sell wedding kits, others provide

24
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: typical services like photography. The trend is not going away.

25
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 1: As from missus Anderson, I hope she had a heck

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: of a honeymoon.
