New Media had a mini-renunion last weekend to celebrate a very special occasion. Brent got married. That alone is big news for us but imagine our surprise to see his wedding cake all over the internet the next morning. In case you missed it (already posted on Boing Boing, Joystiq, Flickr, etc) here are some pictures of their amazing Mario & Princess cake. Congratulations Brent and Annette!
