Software engineer wears $3,500 Apple Vision Pro to his WEDDING - and his bride looks disgusted

A San Francisco wedding took an unexpected turn when the groom wore a $3,500 Apple Vision Pro during post-ceremony pictures and reception.

Cambree, the bride, appeared looking less than pleased in a photo posted on X, while Jacob, a software engineer, smiled at the camera with his face partially covered by the bulky Vision Pro headset and fingers pinched in the air.

The picture was posted a mere two weeks after the Vision Pro's release which has seen a recent drop in sales, with one percent of buyers returning the device.

The bride pleaded with her future husband to leave the headset in the car during their big day - but her future husband ignored her wishes and wore them anyway.

'I did not wear it in ceremony out of respect to God and to my wife,' Jacob told Futurism. 

'But after we got out [of the ceremony], we were taking photos — like the bridesmaids and the groomsmen and things — and just jokingly, I was like, 'Hey, I have my Apple Vision Pro in my backpack.''

Jacob Wright, 24, works at an AI startup Runpod, and said he rushed to buy the Vision Pro two days after its release, something that bothers his new wife.

When he puts on the headset at home, Cambree told SFGate that she 'tries not to look because it's a little creepy, it's a little uncanny.

'When he's in the Apple Vision Pro, I let him do his thing.'

Jacob asked Cambree two or three times if he could wear the Vision Pro, and even though she told him 'no' repeatedly, she told SFGate: 'And then I turn around one minute and he has it on.'

'I totally look pissed in the picture,' she told the outlet. 'But I wasn't pissed.' 

Jacob wore the headset throughout the reception to record he and his new bride and their guests dancing and celebrating their nuptials

However, Cambree told Futurism that she had told Jacob he could wear the device after he asked if they could please take pictures of him wearing it.

'So I was like, 'Yeah, it's fine if everyone else leaves.' But it was the last thing I wanted pictures of,' she said.

And while she similarly acknowledged that she looked 'pissed' in the picture, she told Futurism: 'I just thought it was funny.'

Jacob claimed he wore the headset only for Instagram, but then decided to wear it during the reception to record immersive videos and pictures to look back on in the future. 

'I have a video of me there with all the bridesmaids, all the groomsmen — everyone who came to the ceremony,' Jacob told Futurism. 

'I think that'll be super awesome to show our kids in 20 years,' he added.

Apple's Vision Pro took off immediately even before it's official release, selling out of its roughly 200,000 headsets within hours of opening pre-orders for the product.

Apple's Vision Pro lets users merge their real world with virtual reality, using their eyes, voice, and hands.

The device lets users watch movies on a projected big screen while also letting users simultaneously view their surroundings.

The device also lets you work on your computer, no monitor needed, and can take videos and pictures which allows users to re-immerse themselves in the moment years later. 

It supports one million apps from iOS and iPadOS to play games and stream movies.

Apple's CEO Tim Cook said the 'Vision Pro is the most advanced consumer electronics device ever created. 

'Its revolutionary and magical user interface will redefine how we connect, create, and explore.' 

The Vision Pro's price starts at $3,500 for the basic 256GB of storage, but goes up to $3,699 for 512GB of storage.

If the consumer wants to further increase the storage to 1TB, the price increases to $3,899, with an addition $99 add-on for optical insets.
