DR. MARK BENECKE: WGT Diary 2022 (29/60) – Hell? Maggots? Honey? (1/3)

Automatic translation. Improvements are constantly being worked on.

At the entrance of the fair park we meet Sabine, Kari and Jacky. Mark: “You’re in the photos with two women in your arms. What’s going on?” Kari: “Once a mother, once a wife.” Mark: “You said these are your favorite women in the world.” Kari: “Joah!” (laughing) Mark: “Who convinced who to Goth? Your mom both of you or you your mom?” Kari: “That’s how it grew in teenage years, I’ve infested the whole family with it. My sister is still jumping around too, but she got the wrong lane, she’s late. We’ve been married for about three weeks, since Friday, 13!” Mark: “Congratulations! Did you guys do a gothic wedding?” Jacky: “Yes!” Mark: “What was that like for you, wearing black to walk your son down the aisle?” Sabine: “That’s how it should be!” Mark: “How long did it take him to convince you to do goth things?” Sabine: “We are more the metal side, and I come from the rock side. So it didn’t take much convincing.” Mark: “How did you organize your wedding black-romantic?” Kari: “We set a black dress code, a little bit Victorian. Funny enough, this is my wedding outfit, but I didn’t bring the jacket because it’s way too warm.” Mark: “You’re standing in your wedding suit!? How was your cake?” Kari: “Black and red, three-tiered. Her mother is a trained pastry chef and made us the black cake for our wedding.” Mark: “Was it black on the inside, too?” Jacky: “The top layer, yes!” Mark: “Is that something you guys can recommend, requiring guests to wear black?” Jacky: “Everyone adapted, there was no grumbling at all.” (Text & photos: Mark Benecke)
