Couple Meets Online Playing Diablo, Gets Married

Alvin Lau (a Crusader) and Alexis Loo (a Demon Hunter) met online while they were playing Diablo III. Their online friendship blossomed into a romance, and the pair got married last year, celebrating the whole thing with an elaborate Diablo-themed cosplay photo shoot.

This wasn’t the big day itself, just a pre-wedding shoot—it’s tough dancing in those shoulder pauldrons—but it’s still pretty great.

Mezame and his crew handled photography, while the Neo Tokyo Project helped out with weapon and prop construction.

Because the couple are from Singapore, getting a proper Diablo-themed shoot was a lot harder than it would be for someone living in a place where classic European ruins and cemetaries are more common. So Mezame shot the pair in front of a green screen, then got creative with some locations like a church and dropped them in later.
