The nuptials arrived five months after the couple announced their engagement in May. The groom's band mate, Daniel Lohner, broke the news via Twitter. "Goths the world over will mourn this day -- off to a wedding," he wrote alongside a blurry photo of the newlyweds dancing together with the caption, "Congrats!"
Gossip blogger Pink Is the New Blog snapped photos of the reception, including one pic of Trent and Mariqueen smooching away in their swanky suit and gown. See, even the muscle-bound man-in-black responsible for the summer's scariest live concerts, cleans up for a Hallmark-style wedding!
As previously reported, Reznor retired NIN this August/September with the "Wave Goodbye" tour, concluding with an emotional farewell in Los Angeles. Maandig left West Indian Girl in August.
But NIN fans shouldn't lose hope just yet: Reznor has said he plans to record new music, and Gary Numan, who joined Reznor and Co. onstage during the farewell tour, told Quietus that he and Reznor plan to collaborate after the "dust settles" from the marriage. "It'll either be later this year or early next," Numan added.

This is a victory for gay marriage in California. What the article didn't mention is that Mariqueen is rumoured to be a male, and a drug addicted prostitute according to many ex-NIN fans on other message boards. He fans left in droves in a mass exodus when they saw her, and how Trent encouraged his fans to commit suicide by giving a detailed description of how to slit thier wrists on his message board. He is no longer considered a hero or an icon, but a disgrace.

There is no hope for NIN, his whole fanbase are grossed out by him and her and will not buy anything from him again. No one is looking at Trent the same way again and any of the higher ups in the entertainment industry does not work with Trent Reznor because no one is buying again from him and quite frankly they think he is repulsive for pulling of this sham marriage trying to copy Kloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom.
