Noon and Todd wed under difficult circumstances

Oh My GOSH, Bangkok burns, Noon and Todd wed. Zen shopping center was burned down by ‘red shirt’ protesters after their leaders surrendered and were arrested yesterday afternoon Thailand time. Central World shopping center was burned down, Ch3 offices were attacked. No lakorns airing today on Ch3.

Reporting from the Associated Press about Ch3:

Protesters had already turned their rage on the local media, which they have accused of pro-government coverage. They attacked the offices of state-run Channel 3, setting fire to cars outside and puncturing water pipes that flooded the building.

“At Channel 3 need urgent help from police, soldiers!!!” tweeted news anchor Patcharasri Benjamasa. “News cars were smashed and they are about to invade the building.”

Noon and Todd did not want to cancel the second part to their wedding because they have been planning it for over a year. It was meant to be a big wedding, considering the political circumstances, they understand it will be rushed because of the curfew and not all their guests will attend.

“I’m very concern about today’s situation, especially regarding our wedding guests and the mass media. I am concern about the safety of everyone. For that reason, those who could not attend and fear that Noon and I will not understand. We would like to tell them, we understand it WELL. Today, we will try to make everything go as fast as possible. The truth is we have been planning this event for over a year and have been following the news. Our elders have been preparing the security aspect of the wedding since the beginning,” said Todd.

Someone has been noted saying this is like 9/11 in Bangkok. It looks very familiar-smoke, fire, brings back memories.

Noon and Todd giving each other pecks on the cheek for the media at the Royal Jublilee Ballroom, Impact Arena.

Considering the circumstances, they still looked elegant.

I don’t know how I feel about this. Considering the circumstances, should they have canceled?
