A woman who vowed that if she didn't find love by the time she turned 40 married herself earlier this month in a lavish ceremony here in Houston, according to reports.

Yasmin Eleby married herself at the Houston Museum of African American Culture on January 3 in a lavish ceremony with10 bridesmaids in attendance, plus family and other guests on hand to celebrate the event.

For this ceremony, Eleby's minister sister performed the spiritual service, as it's not legal to marry yourself. The pictures from the ceremony look normal, except that Eleby is by herself in the photos and not standing with a spouse.

According to John Guess Jr., the CEO of the complex, the event was very much in line with the forward thinking normally found at the HMAAC, which welcomes and invites people of all sexual orientations to enjoy and rent the facility. They routinely have same-sex dances and commitment ceremonies on site. The surrounding community, Guess Jr. says, has fully embraced the HMAAC.

When he heard what Eleby, who works overseas in the oil and gas industry, was planning at the HMAAC he rushed over to see it for himself. "Once she hit 40 she figured if she didn't find someone who loved her as much as she did, she would marry herself," says Guess Jr., who has now seen Eleby's ceremony go viral. He agrees with Eleby's notion that loving yourself for who you are completely before loving someone else is the key to happiness.

"So many people get married without thinking twice about who they are pairing with," Guess Jr. says.
He thinks that once potential suitors see how Eleby treats herself that she could have some competition (for herself). "She's attractive, she works hard, and she's worldwide," he says. She also has a sense of humor about the situation too he adds.

"It doesn't hurt her that she's now indicated to others that she has high standards," Guess Jr. says.
As for her honeymoon plans, sources have said that she listed Cambodia, Laos, and a jazz festival in Dubai as stops on the itinerary.

Rude, loud, obnoxious, argumentative... Just a few adjectives which are associated with women like the bride.

Completely shocked a man would not want to wed/bed that.

1) How is this forward thinking? This is dumb. Looks like a spoiled rich girl wasn't ever able to find anyone and now feels obligated to tell the world how much she doesn't care because, you know, its all about her. Sometimes ideas are just stupid, even if they are made in the spirit of individualism. Everyone is such a special snowflake nowadays.

2) Found it funny the CEO of this center is applauding the move and inviting everyone come rent the facility. Capitalism at its finest. A fool and his money are soon parted.

If she does end up finding someone to marry her, will she have to divorce herself first? Could get messy since she would be an adulterer.
