I am guessing she married the river as a statement about not needing to be in a relationship to be happy.
“She married the River Avon in a “joyful” ceremony to protect it and raise awareness of water pollution on 17 June 2023.“
That's kind of cool
Some people have a thing for places, this is not unheard of. I remember a woman marrying the Berlin wall, and adding "Berliner-Mauer" to their last name. How this works, I don't know - but it doesn't hurt anyone, so who cares. It is interesting though
But she literally created a fake relationship with an inanimate object to be happy.
Or to let people know she wasn't interested in them.
"Hey, how you doin'? Oh wait, you're the crazy bitch who married the river! Never mind..."
Mission accomplished.
