Ladies, if you think there just aren't enough good men out there, why not just marry a building?
A Seattle woman is looking forward to doing just that this Sunday. Babylonia Aivaz says she plans to marry a 107-year-old warehouse in the city's Capitol Hill neighborhood.
She's calling the upcoming ceremony a "gay marriage."
Aivaz says she fell head over heels after joining an Occupy Seattle protest inside the building last month.
"I'm doing it to show the building how much I love it," says Aivaz, "how much I love community space and how much I love this neighborhood, and I want to stop it from gentrification."
But there's a big snag in the road for this happy couple. Demolition crews have already started to dismantle the bride-to-be. They're making way for a mixed-use apartment building
Still, it's been said that true love never dies and Aivaz says she's going ahead with her wedding plans, anyway.
