Let’s say you want to get a TV star to officiate your wedding. You would think that the price is certainly too big to afford. Well, as it turns out, you can get away with some retweets and a piece of cake. Just ask Ericka.
On January 15, Ericka posted a simple question on her Twitter profile: “What would it take to get David Harbour to be the Officiant at my wedding in September?!”
What would it take to get @DavidKHarbour to be the Officiant at my wedding in September?!

A day after, the Stranger Things star answered, saying that he needs for his tweet to have 125k retweets, that the wedding date works with his shooting schedule, and he also wants the first piece of the wedding cake. If all of that pans out, he promised to get ordained and perform the ceremony.
125k retweets. Provided date works with s3 shooting schedule, I will get ordained and perform ceremony. I get to read an esteemed love letter of my choosing, and after the cake is officially cut, I get the very first piece. #allthecakes https://t.co/rSku8qD7uT

Later, he added that he will allow all “bride and groom cake shenanigans” but that he wants the actual whole first piece of the cake.
I will allow the smearing of it on each other’s faces, licking icing off fingers and all other bride and groom cake shenanigans, but the actual first whole piece is mine, dammit. https://t.co/8NKZtbQfHS

Now, Harbour obviously underestimated internet, because in less than 24 hours, internet delivered and they easily went over the 125k retweets mark. The 42-year-old actor accepted the defeat this time but said “this is not over between us” referring to the internet.
Dammit. Not even 24hours. You’re kidding me. @ErickaElizabth DM me please to get the ball rolling. I’m making it seriously hard next time, internet, this is not over between us… https://t.co/Ht0kDCl5hz

It looks like it isn’t very wise to challenge the internet, because the internet users deliver each time, especially if a celebrity is involved.
We hope that Ericka will choose a fitting date because David Harbour has been a very busy man lately. He is set to reprise the role of Chief Jim Hopper in season three of Netflix’ hit series Stranger Things, for which he received numerous award nominations in 2017. Also, Harbour is currently filming the Hellboy reboot in which he plays the role of the titular character.
