In a world where nothing happens unless it is documented on social media, actress Gabrielle Union and Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade have decided to do something very different for their wedding. They have banned cell phones from their nuptials, so don’t expect famous faces to share pictures on Twitter and Instagram.
TMZ got a look at the couple’s wedding invitation, which is actually made of wood, and it specifically tells guests to not bring phones and cameras “for the comfort of our guests and to protect our privacy.”
So, the couple either really wants to get a big pay day from the tabloid that gets the “exclusive” first photos or their hired photographer doesn’t want to compete with celebrity Twitter users.
The invitation doesn’t even say where the wedding will be held. Instead, it tells guests to meet up at a hotel, where they will be driven to the mysterious Miami location. It will take the guests 40 to 50 minutes to get to the actual venue and then they will have to go through a 30-minute security process.
The couple plan on getting married on Aug. 30. They became engaged in December 2013 after being together since 2009. They are moving ahead, even though Wade did have a child with another woman. Union did know about the child before he popped the question.
Wade did agree to return to the Miami Heat and will play with Chris Bosh again. However, LeBron James - who won two championships with Bosh and Wade - is going back to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
