Naked wedding couple's stripped back ceremony

Melanie Schachner, 26, and Rene Schachner, 31, tied the knot in the buff in Feldkirchen after trying to find a way to make sure they would never forget their wedding day.

With just a veil for the bride and a top hat to cover Rene's wedding tackle for the official photos, the pair got hitched in a register office service in front of friends and family before celebrating in a castle.

Melanie said: 'We're not ashamed of our bodies and we wanted to do something different. It certainly saved on a wedding dress.'

Maybe they got inspiration from Aussie couple Ellie Barton and Phil Hendicott, who conducted their nuptials in the nude back in 2009.

They won a radio competition which awarded them a free wedding - as long as they both wore nothing at all.

However, their 250 wedding guests were not required to go starkers.

26岁的Melanie Schachner 与 31岁的 Rene Schachner近日喜结良缘。为了让他们自己的终生大事变得更加难忘一点，他们毅然选择了裸体出席婚礼。

Melanie认为他俩并不以自己的身体为耻，所以像这样“不走寻常路”一把有何不可？再说了，这裸奔参加婚礼，婚纱的钱不就省下了嘛！
