If you thought a wedding proposal at a sport’s arena seemed cheesy, the folks behind Ozzfest plan to go the extra mile. Well, they plan to do the same thing — only with heavy death metal.
As explained on Ozzfest.com:
As with other wedding packages, the one-stop Unholy Matrimony Package provides just about everything the happy couple will need except a marriage license. Each special package includes a variety of items to mark the special day and 10 general admission pit tickets for the bride & groom and 8 guests; an official OzzFest wedding ceremony by ordained minister MC Big Dave; an OZZFest cake and champagne toast.
If that’s not enough, couples will also receive entry to the venue, a backstage tour, access to the VIP lounge, custom t-shirts, posters, and more.
So in summary, if you planned on getting married next month, have zero plans made, really love Ozzy, and only want eight guests, this may be just perfect for you. Just a warning: a more traditional family might not love this choice, but if this is something you’re even considering, odds are you don’t care.
All that being said, you better hurry. Wedding packages are already sold out for the California, Connecticut, and New Jersey legs of tour. Opportunities are still available for Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Boston.
For those not looking to get married, Ozzfest ’10 will feature Ozzy, Mötley Crüe, Rob Halford, DevilDriver, and Nonpoint as headliners. Other acts scheduled to perform include Black Label Society, Drowning Pool, Kingdom of Sorrow, Goatwhore, Skeletonwitch, Saviours, and Kataklysm. Find a full list of confirmed tour stops below.
