Only for a week this year? They had them up the whole month last year. Darn!

Obviously getting a bit stingey in their old age!

Why are there wedding stuff there? Is someone working for ST getting married or something?

Nope. ST does this every June. Even back in the Dreamcast days! It's because June is like the wedding month or something. I'm really mad though because its only for a bloody week when they had it up for a whole month last year!

Why? Who's the lucky lady?

It has taken place in previous years, i've seen the footage! But thats quite a question...

o just for you Faulkie i spent ages going through the archives of Sonic Team Server Maintenance posts to see if i could find the answer there, and you know what....

...i cudn't find the one that accompanied the addition last year! However i did realise it's Sonic's Birthday on June 23rd which Sonic Team celebrated on PSO last year. I wonder if they'll do anything for this year. I'll have to keep my eye out on that one since it's the following day after the Wedding Chapel decorations get removed. In which case look out for a Server Maintenance post soon! ^_^

However i will find the reason behind this! I even scowered the depths of SEGA Dreamcast Server maintenance posts, and STILL found nothing! *Sigh*

I bet someone here knows and is just keeping it a secret!

Well I want to know and if I don't I'll GO CRAZY!!!! Muhahahaha!!

I'd like to see this and the birthday decorations (if there are any)

They will probably do a quest. Maybe White Day again.... or was that Valentine's....... I keep forgetting >_<. Anyway, expect lobbies to be empty as the most annoying rendition of the wedding song ever. It's about 1 minute long and repeats over and over -.-;;;

Hahaha! I can always mute my TV!
