I&#8217;m the type of person to get attached to celebrities and fictional characters (aka people I don&#8217;t actually know), so watching someone I&#8217;d been subscribed to for years get married made me very emotional. So emotional, in fact, that I just had to write about it!<\/p>\n<p>For most of 2019, Safiya&#8217;s videos were wedding related. She tried wedding dresses from Wish, had a McDonald&#8217;s wedding in Hong Kong, and baked a wedding cake with over 30 different cake flavors mixed together. But among these fun videos were also more serious ones. Her now-husband, Tyler Williams (another YouTube content creator), vlogged the process of buying Safiya a ring and proposing to her. Safiya also uploaded a video following the process of her getting a custom made wedding dress.<\/p>\n<p>And then on January 5th of 2020, Safiya uploaded a video titled &#8220;Our Wedding | Safiya &amp; Tyler&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/scontent-yyz1-1.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.2885-15\/sh0.08\/e35\/s640x640\/81255253_763975050747922_2471279613970903613_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-yyz1-1.cdninstagram.com&amp;_nc_cat=110&amp;_nc_ohc=APF_9wM1w_gAX8iBI_7&amp;oh=5383ff64574c8e735b69d00b90e3f92d&amp;oe=5EA2D571\" alt=\"Image result for safiya nygaard wedding\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to be honest, I cried. I cried a lot. I&#8217;m a sucker for sweet, sappy things and that&#8217;s all the video was. Both of them looked beautiful and the decorators were gorgeous and the whole thing was just amazing!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, things about their wedding really struck a chord with me. Firstly, the decorations. Safiya had been teasing potential decorations and themes for months, but finally seeing everything come together was just magical!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8003\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.19.10-AM-300x154.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.19.10-AM-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.19.10-AM-768x394.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.19.10-AM-1024x525.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.19.10-AM-1200x616.png 1200w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.19.10-AM.png 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8006\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.25.46-AM-300x161.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.25.46-AM-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.25.46-AM-768x413.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.25.46-AM-1024x550.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Screen-Shot-2020-01-27-at-10.25.46-AM-1200x645.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It really made me reconsider my feelings towards the weddings I&#8217;ve been too. Safiya and Tyler&#8217;s wedding put the other weddings to shame.<\/p>\n<p>The second thing was Safiya and Tyler&#8217;s first dance.<\/p>\n<p>In the 1993 film\u00a0<em>Addams Family Values, <\/em>Gomez and Morticia Addams dance an elaborate version of the Tango during one of their dates. It included many moves that were complicated and even edited in post.<\/p>\n<p>For their first dance as a married couple, Safiya and Tyler decided to recreate the dance step by step. It was nothing short of awesome!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/66.media.tumblr.com\/c3a5e5c05528d1b89325b188f28230b8\/76d16b61bcae1d2a-6b\/s400x600\/7821368f108a651d8636fe5033aa9bdb2fe92eff.gifv\" alt=\"Image result for safiya nygaard wedding\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I mentioned that I can get overly attached to celebrities and fictional characters, and I feel the need to explain that more. I discovered Safiya during a time in my life when I wasn&#8217;t exactly happy. Safiya&#8217;s uploads always brightened my day. Whether she was dressing like it was 1987 or mixing all of her eyeshadows together, they always made me smile. Although I&#8217;m happier now, I still enjoy her content and she still holds a special place in my heart.\u00a0Seeing her so happy at her wedding was heartwarming, to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>According to Instagram, Safiya and Tyler are at home with their cat, Krusty, happily married. That honestly sounds like the perfect ending\/beginning of this chapter in their lives.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/66.media.tumblr.com\/40136904e7c855b3ffb36b85c323c08d\/afafed6a55acfe3e-95\/s500x750\/5722d6d3961f934fc996e0f272977a635128d9e0.gifv\" alt=\"Image result for safiya nygaard wedding\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In November of 2019, Safiya Nygaard, one of my favorite YouTube content creators, got married.
