Brief Explanation

To shed light on the dangers of celebratory gunfire in weddings, we needed to address couples because they were the ones who had the power to keep their wedding safe and gun-free. We chose the top wedding fairs in the country to address Lebanese couples one-on-one by executing a shocking stunt that engages with them, offering them the first shooting service for weddings called Eleguns. We made it look authentic while our representatives pretended to be real employees. Couples who were interested in the service were made aware of the risks associated with shooting
