Taco Bell x Decentraland: About the metaverse wedding
Until September 6, couples can enter for a chance to win Taco Bell’s metaverse wedding package. For this, the brand has created a virtual replica of its Las Vegas Wedding Chapel and Cantina in Decentraland. The metaverse wedding will be completely personalized according to the needs of the happy couple.
“We’re always looking for new ways to meet our fans where they already are and bring them signature Taco Bell experiences…even if that’s in the metaverse,” said Taco Bell Chief Brand Officer Sean Tresvant. In the era of swiping for love, Taco Bell’s metaverse wedding will empower a couple to join the journey of what may be the next evolution of modern love — and we’re proud to be leading the charge .”
The metaverse wedding is scheduled for this fall. It will be complete with all the traditional wedding elements: music, first dance, food, toast, exchange of vows and rings, and more. The couple’s guests have exclusive access to the soiree. However, it will also be open to indoor guests Decentralized.
How to sign up for the Taco Bell metaverse marriage contest
To sign up for the Taco Bell metaverse wedding contest, engaged couples can submit a registration form. In addition, they must submit a video about their love story, why they want to get married in the metaverse and their passion for Taco Bell. Applications can be made at Taco Bell’s metaverse wedding website.
In addition, each person has only one entry. They can also share their video on social media using the hashtag #TacoBellMetaverseWeddingContest and tag @tacobell. Then they need to add social media video links to the website.
Once selected, the brand will work closely with the couple to create the wedding of their dreams. This includes everything from designing the wedding attire to choosing an official to commemorate the ceremony.
Virtual weddings are becoming increasingly popular
As metaverses become more popular, so do virtual weddings. For example, at the beginning of this year, a couple from the Indian state of Tamil Nadu held a wedding reception in the metaverse. The Hogwarts themed reception happened in collaboration with TardiVerse Metaverse on the Polygon blockchain.
Some, like this Indian couple, held a “blockchain” wedding with NFT vows and a digital priest. Similarly, last year an American couple exchanged NFT rings in a traditional Jewish ceremony. As metaverses become more mainstream, we can probably expect the virtual marriage trend to continue.
