"A Thai television director, Chadil Deffy, also known as Deff Yingyuen, married his girlfriend of 10 years, Sarinya “Anne” Kamsook, early this month. The difference between their wedding and others is that the bride had been dead for days by the time the wedding took place.

Kamsook lay in a coffin as the wedding --- also a funeral --- took place at a temple in Surin Province, as the Pattaya Daily News reported at the time. While many saw the wedding as an acdt of love by a heartbroken Deffy, it was his later decision post photos and video of the event to Facebook and YouTube that has since drawn mixed reaction from the public.

Deffy is 28. During the ceremony, while wearing a black tuxedo, he placed a wedding ring on the finger of Kamsook, whose body was lying on a raised platform and dressed in a white bridal dress. Photos of the ceremony were placed by Deffy on his personal Facebook page in what might have been an ill-named photo album titled "Corpse Bride." At the same time, Deffy uploaded a video to YouTube.

The couple had been together for 10 years. They met while both were studying at Eastern Asia University. While Kamsook brought up the possibility of marriage, Deffy had demurrred. Kamsook died in a car accident on Jan. 3 at the age of 29. It is perhaps because he had "rebuffed" Kamsook somewhat, that might have led to the decision of the wedding, which his friend called "an attempt to right a wrong.""

They say, she still could have been saved with timely medical attention. However, the doctors made her wait for 6 hours due to an overcrowded ICU instead of transferring her to another hospital. During this time, she succumbed to her injuries and passed away.

What a beautiful act of love to perform the ceremony in which you share your lives together even after she no longer has her's

17 Name: kei : 2012-01-28 06:49 ID:Qi9sXoLP [Del]

it seems pretentious and too showy to me...esp after him posting abt this on facebook and whatever. he wanted publicity. am i too mean? i think not. he could honour her in other ways

18 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-01-28 09:28 ID:+QnECLzm [Del]

>>17
yet he did this. This way was good enough, too.

This is so sad... Its like some kind of drama, I feel like this kind of thing is so rarely found in real life. It was very honorable of him, I just feel bad that so many people will misunderstand it.
I guess he just wanted to announce it to the public because their marriage is a symbol of their love, even after death. Maybe he wanted them to be recognized as a married couple, like she would have wanted.

>>14 Marriage laws can be quite loose, depending on where you go. Check out this guy, for instance:

Not quite as honorable, but weirder.

50/50 chance this guy attempts ritual suicide later this year in an attempt to rejoin his love.
