Angie Hamouie sets to marry her Degree on May

Skazyupdate

Na so! trust them with funny stunts. Angie Hamouie is getting married... to her medical degree.

The 27-year-old lady from Texas is graduating from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in June and she’s celebrating by throwing what she has dubbed a “grand wedding.”

There’s going to be a wedding-style dress, a dance with the diploma and, of course, grand wedding cake. She created a website on wedding website The Knot to announce her union with her M.D.

“This was such a big deal for her, because it was the culmination of three degrees and nine years of higher education,” Hamouie’s Knot page reads. “Her match represented everything she had worked toward. Angie realized this graduation would only happen once in her life. She wondered, why is it that no one really celebrates their graduation? And if she threw a party, how could she convey that this party was a Big Deal?”

So, after her “enmatchment,” Hamouie planned a grand wedding. The party is set for May 13, and she’s invited friends and family to come join her on her "big" day.

“I didn’t think folks would take this party seriously because it was ‘only’ a graduation,” Hamouie told The Huffington Post. “I wanted to convey that this milestone is a huge deal for me, and I thought the best way to do that would be by pretending to marry my degree.”
