Gaiman and Palmer Marry

Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer were married January 3, 2011 in Berkeley, California in the parlor of friends and fellow authors Michael Chabon and Ayelet Waldman. Musician Jason Webley, who was ordained on the Internet, officiated the “almost on the spur of the moment” ceremony.

Guests were friends who had gathered for dinner, but were instead treated to the spontaneous wedding. Palmer wore the dress she wore as a human statue at a previously staged mock wedding in New Orleans, and pie was had by all.
