This will really put a stop to those uncomfortable wedding officiant tangents.

Japanese couple Tomohiro Shibata and Satoko Inoue recently tied the knot with the help of the I-Fairy bot, a ceremonial drone created by Japanese company Kokoro, where the bride works.

Inspired? The bot, one of only three in use, will set you back $68,000, though because the I-Fairy is controlled by a human, at least there is no question of the legitimacy of the marriage.
