But Who Kept the Gifts In the Happy Meals?

Sometimes you think to yourself, nothing can surprise me anymore.

Then you stumble across things like this article, and you're amazed at the ever-climbing levels of human strangeness.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15 (UPI) -- A New York couple, strapped for cash after investing in a house, went the inexpensive route for a wedding receptions -- a local McDonald's.

Twenty-three-year-old Corey Cutcheon and 34-year-old Doreen Brown became the first couple to hold their reception at a Long Island McDonald's, Newsday reports.

The Valentine's Day nuptials were performed by a judge at Port Jefferson Village Hall Tuesday morning.

Then the two joined 50 friends and family members to feast on cheeseburgers, Fillet-o-Fish and Chicken McNuggets.

Desert was slices of Ronald McDonald chocolate cake and hot fudge sundaes.

The bill -- about $250.

Despite the rarity it isn't the first McWedding. A couple in Wales had a 33 Happy Meal reception in 2002.
