Wedding Poll

What was the most unique or most memorable part of your wedding or wedding reception?

"Maybe I'm biased, but we had lots of memorable moments! One funny thing happened during the ceremony was as we were about to say our vows. I wore a tea-length dress, and where we stood in front of the minister was directly over a vent. It was cold that day, and so the heat came on every so often. At the time it came on, I thought, ‘That heat feels good because my legs are cold!' Before I knew it, our ceremony became like the scene in the Marilyn Monroe movie, ‘The Seven Year Itch,' with my skirt flying up (luckily, not that high!). After we all had a good laugh about it, we officially got hitched." —Anna Kline, married to Walter Biggins one year

"I think the most memorable part of our wedding was when I woke up to weather sirens that morning. Our wedding was supposed to be an outside wedding, and all of the chairs were getting rained on. I kept being reminded that in some cultures ... they believe that rain on your wedding day is good luck and that it promotes a stronger marriage because the wet ‘knot' is harder to untie. We all piled into one room at the entrance of the house for our wedding ceremony. I think being gathered all together made the ceremony more intimate and special, and I wouldn't change any detail, if I could." —Lydia Chadwick, married to Price Chadwick three years
