Identical Twin Sisters Marry Identical Twin Brothers, And Everyone Is Thinking The Same Thing Right Now
No, you’re not seeing double. Identical twin brothers Josh and Jeremy Salyers proposed to identical twin sisters Brittany and Briana Deane on the 2nd of February (or 2-2), and the couple of couples have just gotten married in a joint ceremony at the 2018 Twins Days Festival in Twinsburg, Ohio. The ceremony was themed “Twice Upon a Time,” with identical twin ministers leading the way.
“It’s really been a fairy tale come true. Marrying twins is something that’s very important to us,” Briana (who married Jeremy) told PEOPLE. She even called the ceremony a ‘double fairy tale.’ “Even when we were little girls I can remember being in kindergarten, knowing that that is what we saw for ourselves.”
Brittany added: “We knew that the chances were incredibly scarce. The stars had to align for our dreams to come true. I get to marry the man of my dreams and at the same time I get to look over next to me and see my twin sister marrying the man of her dreams.”
The brides wore matching dresses while the grooms rocked identical tuxedos. The foursome first met last year at the same festival. Brittany and Briana had been attending it for years, and met Josh and Jeremy on the final day of the 2017 twin gathering. It was their first one.
“I remember vividly the first time Brittany and I saw Josh, and Jeremy at the twins festival,” Briana said. “I also remember the first time we all spoke the last night of the festival. It’s sort of like everything was in slow motion.”
“If they couldn’t find identical twin girls that matched up well with them, they were never getting married,” Brittany said. “I think that they experienced a lot of the same challenges dating what we call singletons, that means non-twins. It’s hard when you’re dating someone and they don’t understand the twin bond.”
If that’s not enough, the gang also plan to all live in the same house where they would raise their children together.

Twins are still different personalities so to make the twin aspect the most important one for marriage really seems strange to me. What if one couple falls out of love? I also find it creepy as others have said. Fortunately each set of twins has sufficient facial differences that they can be told apart.
As someone whose parents were a twin and a singleton I can tell you that my mom spent her life struggling to balance what were for her equally strong bonds (her sister never married and my dad always felt/was treated like an intruder). It may sound creepy from the outside, but I think it makes sense for twins to look for partners who share/understand that bond.
Load More Replies...That's too much togetherness!!! You should live your separate lives with your wives!!!!!!
I suspect that one day they will...and I would KILL to be a fly on the wall for that.
Load More Replies...My first "Mr. yuk" moment was seeing that every single (not) person in the wedding party was an identical twin. Seems cultish.
Yeah... don't either of them have any non-twin friends? If so, I wonder how those friends felt about being left out?
Load More Replies...Hm, well with both sets of twins wanting to marry twins I was thinking ok, that seems a little strange to emphasize that so much but such things happen and that's cool they both found guys they love who are twins.. but then living together in the same house? That seems weird to me. I could see being neighbors, frequent visits etc. But it feels like they're trying so hard to actually be the same person/couple. I understand they have a close bond of course, but I think they should be ok with being an individual too!
I read in a different article that the sisters consider themselves "two halves of a whole." So there you go, they really don't even think of themselves as individuals. Doesn't seem healthy!
Load More Replies...I'm thinking houses next door or across the street from one another might work better?!? But that's just my "twin" brain working because my twin and I don't always agree with one another, ROFL!
Is anyone else seriously creeped out by this? I feel like I'm in a movie..Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Stepford Wives.... I half expect the twins from The Shining to appear.."Come play with us, Danny!!!" The-Shinin...d3d52.jpeg
Very creeped out. My cousins are twins and they barely get along!
Load More Replies...Wait - I just reread the intro - these identical twin guys actualls went LOOKING for some identical twins to marry???? The Gene pool needs to be widened not narrowed
“If they couldn’t find identical twin girls that matched up well with them, they were never getting married," - seriously creepy and odd
Load More Replies...Ok...that's super creepy. This story is creepy, the weird twin attendants are creepy! Super creepy!!!
I find it amusing how identical twins stress on the fact that they are 2 individual people and not to be seen as 1 yet most choose to dress the same as each other.
Most don't - Personally I have known 5 sets of twins and they didn't dress alike. By choice or by accident. TV programme backed it up that most just want to be their own person and the greater percentage (can't remember exactly the amount) didn't enjoy being a twin.
Load More Replies...What a weird thing to be osessed about marrying twins... I wonder if they ever had issue about ther identities as two different individuals.
Isn't it though? They have probably worked really hard at being as similar as possible. Parents probably did all that cutesy dressing them alike which isn't recommended.
Load More Replies...At first I though it was a bit weird, but cute overall. Then I read they all planned to live in the same house and it became creepy. I'm curious to see if these marriages survive, it just seems unhealthy.
@Random Panda I feel like this is some kind of cult or a publicity stunt for some reason!
Load More Replies...Living in the same house...this could be interesting...especially for guests who can't tell everyone apart. Needs to be made into a comedy.
Hahaha!! One film I won't be going to see though!!
Load More Replies...Sounds like they have every intention of this being polyamory. I mean, maybe not, but it sure sounds like it. I hope it works out for them, I do, but on the other hand I can't help but think what's going to happen if their personalities and appearances diverge over time. What if one of them cheats? What if one of them lets themselves go and one of the partners is not okay with that? What if someone develops a serious illness or even dies? Are those legal contracts saying Briana and Josh are married, and Jeremy and Brittany are married (or the other way, I don't think the article actually specifies) going to get brought up and an ugly court battle ensues? I mean, I guess any polyamory cluster has similar issues, but yeah, that's where my mind goes. Still - maybe it really will be a fairy-tale life for all of them.
I agree. And not all fairytales end well. Life is too arbitrary.
Load More Replies...I'm just thinking that houses next door or across the street from one another might work better. My twin sister and I don't always agree and she is kind of bossy sometimes. I love her dearly, but I would rather not live with her, HA~
As others have pointed out their kids are biologically full siblings, but legally are cousins. I've always wondered (with no small amount of toe-curling...)what the implications are for countries/states where marriage between cousins is permitted...
As the are biologically full siblings even though legally cousins it would still be a really, really bad idea to marry from a genetic point of view. It all feels just so odd.
Load More Replies...Their children are technically siblings (genetically speaking) so I think it'll b neat for them to all be raised together
How? The women are not blood relatives of the men. So, how is it incest?
Load More Replies...Um, get a (separate) life springs to mind. They knew this is what they wanted in kindergarten? Way too planned. Did their parents not try and raise them as two individuals? Or did they encourage this nonsense?
I wonder what it would do to the whole arrangement if one couple had twins and the other didn't. Probably unlikely, but it would be interesting to see how they felt about a hitch to their matchy-matchy lives.
That's....sick and twisted. Bipsy and Boopsy don't want to be grownups?
@Aunt Messy HAHAHAHA Bipsy and Boopsy xD Definitely some kind of cult thing as even all (most?) guests at the wedding were twins
Load More Replies...My mum and dad were both identical twins whose siblings also married on the same day...and yes, all offspring look like brothers and sister because, genetically, we are.
Ugh! Straight people!..... but at least their actions don't make a mockery about the sanctity of marriage and whatnot [sarcasm]
This is the coolest idea and plan! Identical twin usually think for each other and I notice that they have MORE similarities than differences. Notice, they both chose Identical twin brothers. It is so cool and I want them to get their Channel going so we can follow up with their future plans! GOD bless all 4 of them and their future home additions! 👼👶👶👶👶👶
Some of the questions in the post was kinda ridiculous.... even though you are identical twins with ur whoever, there are always a slight difference. I can totally tell in the pics. Sooo, to answer the question about how do you know who is who... Ugh, then you don't know your spouse very well then!
I used to work for a pair of identical twin brothers who met their wives (identical twin sisters) at the same festival many years ago. The first of the two couples to get pregnant do so with identical twins. Boys. They started the site twinstuff.com. https://www.today.com/video/twins-marry-twins-after-meeting-at-twin-convention-14809155670
Thanks to Erica raven because He is great. He has done so much for me. A few months ago my wife left me for another man. I was so depressed I was even admitted in hospital. Then for some reason I was searching for divorce lawyers and to my surprise I ended up on the Erica website (www.ericaraventemple.webs.com). I started reading his works and testimonies and I was so encouraged to fight for my marriage through his power and work. There were times were I lost hope, thinking of giving up but He reminds me to never lose hope. Isaiah 41:10. Today I can say my marriage has been restored. We happy and playing every day and she is happier than before. if you are having such or any kind of problem, you can also contact Erica magic temple on his email emagicp101@gmail.com
That wedding picture with all the sets of twins was just.. Creepy. I got chills-and not the good kind. This is just Fatal Attraction-esque. This whole obsession with all things twin is not healthy. I can't help but wonder if these couples married out of mutual love for one another or whether they married to satisfy their fantasy of being married to twins.
I love twins, and it's amusing seeing the confused look on their babies' faces when meeting their auntie and uncle. Every twin should marry twins.
Did they honeymoon together and compare notes? And what if one gets pregnant and the other doesn't (at least not at the same time) and it's a single birth?
They are in fact identical twins. Doesn't mean that they can't be told apart and these twins do have differences that are obvious. Identical only means one ovum split into two embryos.
