The Resume

    Paul Brooks (circa 1978- )
    Caragh Brooks (circa 1987- )
    Reside in Normal, Illinois
    Married in a Taco Bell restaurant on January 9, 2009

Why they might be annoying:

    They originally met online.
    Caragh wore a $15 hot pink dress to coordinate with the Taco Bell logo.
    Many of their pre-marriage dates took place at Taco Bell.
    Taco Bell had 'Will You Marry Me' hot sauce packets made for the event.
    Before their marriage, they already shared the same last name.
    One of Paul's friends got ordained online to officiate the ceremony.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Paul originally suggested a wedding at Taco Bell as a joke, then Caragh agreed with it.
    As word spread around town about the Taco Bell wedding, public interest in the wedding grew.
    The courthouse they considered marrying in was completely booked which ultimately led to the finalization of the Taco Bell location.
    On CBS' 'The Early Show,' Julie Chen presented the couple with a wedding 'cake' made entirely out of Taco Bell tacos, which was surprisingly beautifully ensembled.
    Caragh is originally from Australia.
    Family members, friends and members of the adoring public witnessed their unusual wedding.
    The full cost of the wedding was $200.
    They wanted an offbeat non-traditional wedding partially because they felt they were an offbeat non-traditional couple.
