There are a lot of things to do when a couple decides to get married. Pick a date, introduce the two families, choose a venue and so on and so on. If you're like some, you may even consider having your wedding bands engraved. Forget engraving "Forever Your's" and other niceties, cartoon characters like Sanrio's Gudetama are much more fit for the occasion. Oh, and a word to the wise, don’t be like this couple. Be careful taking wedding photos.

A touching gift

Recently, manga artist Daredemonai (@daredemonaidare) touched on a couple starting their life together as man and wife. The newlywed's were forced to make some difficult decisions about what to keep when they moved in together. Unfortunately, the wife had to decide to let go of a sentimental item that was a gift from her grandmother when she was a young girl.

Although the husband was surprised to meet his wife's grandmother, it was fortunate they could do so. It seems the couple was too busy to arrange introductions properly before the wedding. Nevertheless, per the grandmother’s advice, it looks like they will certainly be able to maintain a happy home.

Readers of the post responded:

  • “He didn’t know her grandmother was still alive!”
  • “What a nice story.”
  • “Hold on Mike, I can’t take you for a walk because I’m crying...”

You can find more manga like this on Daredemonai’s Twitter page. The artist also has a book available on Amazon. Enjoy!
