Determined to make their marriage official, Amanda and Steve, who had rescued Momo while she was pregnant and abandoned, decided to recreate their wedding ceremony.
Speaking to New York Post, Amanda said:
“Momo is the first cat that we got together, so she’s very special, having her as our witness made the wedding fun and lighthearted.”
Their beloved cat played a pivotal role. They took advantage of Colorado's self-solemnisation marriage law, which permits couples to wed without an ordained minister.
Momo, the wedding witness
Per DailyCaller, Amanda emphasised that self-solemnising was the ideal way to solidify their commitment and the cost of obtaining the legal documentation for their wedding do-over was a modest $35 (R700).
Momo's pawprint on the paperwork symbolises their love and serves as a memorable seal of their union. Amanda shared that Momo's ability to pen her signature was not coincidental.
“We practised so much before we actually put her paw print on the marriage licence. The first time, it was just a big smear.”

The wedding video was a hit on social media as many saw the new husband’s behaviour as a huge red flag.
People had much to say after seeing the newlyweds parade in front of loved ones, but the man's attitude stuck out like a sore thumb.
