An Italian fitness
instructor, Laura Mesi, who became fed up of searching for Mr Right for 20
years has found the answer staring her in the face all along - and has married
herself.
Mesi invited 70 of her nearest and dearest to her wedding,
complete with a white dress, bridesmaids, and a diamond ring.
The 40-year-old paid £8,700 for the ceremony, which is not
legally recognised, and even went to Egypt on her honeymoon - by herself.
Photographs from the big day in Lissone, Lombardy, show Ms
Mesi walking down the aisle on her own and cutting a wedding cake topped with a
solitary female figurine.
She decided to take part in the ceremony after a 12-year
relationship ended in 2015, promising to marry herself should she not met
someone before turning 40.
'I told friends and family that if I had not found my
soul-mate by my 40th birthday I would marry myself,' she told La Repubblica
newspaper.
'If one day I find a man with whom I can plan a future I'll
be happy, but my happiness does not depend on him. This is my fairytale wedding
- only without a Prince Charming.'
