Sologamy or otherwise known as self marriage is marriage and commitment to oneself. It emphasizes on self love and self compassion. This has been a growing trend as people are already engaging in it claiming loving one's s self is the height of love.
An Italian woman has married herself in a ceremony complete with white dress, three-layer wedding cake, bridesmaids and 70 guests. "I firmly believe that each of us must first of all love ourselves," said Laura Mesi, a 40-year-old fitness trainer. "You can have a fairytale even without the prince."
The ceremony carries no legal weight. But Ms Mesi is part of a growing trend for self-marriage - dubbed "sologamy" - in countries around the world. Proponents of such ceremonies say it is about self-love and acceptance, and claiming the social affirmation normally reserved for couples who wed.
To plan a solo wedding, Ms Mesi says you need money, support from those around you - and above all a "pinch of madness". Laura says the idea of a solo wedding came to her two years ago, after a 12-year relationship ended.
Also,In May, a man, Nello Ruggiero, said "yes" to himself in a ceremony in Naples.
