In the run-up to EuroPride Vienna in June 2019, an unusual campaign draws attention to the LGBTQ+ destination Vienna. The Vienna Tourist Board, Serviceplan and Vangardist Magazine organised the most sensational wedding of the year: the wedding of Siri and Alexa and thus the world's first AI wedding. The film documentation of the symbolic wedding of the two smart speakers at Belvedere Castle can now be seen on numerous channels as well as on the campaign site www.siriandalexa.com.
The campaign site provides additional content about the smart bridal couple: In addition to exclusive wedding pictures, several short videos tell the entire love story of Siri and Alexa – from the first date to the honeymoon. And anyone can download the skill themselves, marry their Siri to Alexa and get in the mood for EuroPride 2019 in Vienna at the same time.
The Pride Skill not only answers all the questions that arise around the EuroPride, it also makes it possible to marry Alexa and Siri anywhere in the world. And that's how it works:
1. Set the language of both devices to "English - US".
2. Deactivate the function "Listen for Hey Siri" ("Settings" à "Siri & Search") on the iPhone and then activate it again.
3. Siri will then ask you to say certain phrases. The sound files can be found at the bottom of the siriandalexa.com website.
4. You always start with "Hey Siri". Afterwards Siri must be played one or more of the following sound files:
- "Hey Siri"
- "How's the weather today?"
- "Play some music"
- "It's me"
- "Set a timer for three minutes"
- "What is the weather like today"
- "Send a message"
5. Both devices should be in close proximity to each other.
6. Now open the Pride Skill by saying "Alexa, open euro pride."
7. Finally, the marriage of the two devices can be started with: "Start your vows".
