The day was filled with excitement, joy, happiness and lots of love. The wedding was set in a wonderful winter scene. Even if the sun were hidden behind clouds and fog almost all day; just as the two lovebirds were about to finish the wedding ceremony, the sun worked its way through the clouds, and...
