Hurricane approaching or not – a Cumming couple tied the knot on a Florida Panhandle beach last week, according to a Dothan, Ala., TV station.
Jimmy and Shay Sanders said their “I do’s” on Mexico Beach, one day ahead of Hurricane Helene’s expected landfall, WTVY reports.
“We came to get married. We got married on the beach this morning. A hurricane wedding, ” Jimmy Sanders said.
The newlyweds had to reschedule their original wedding date, and the new date they picked just happened to be the day before Helene was scheduled to arrive.
The couple says they have been coming to Mexico Beach for the past six years.
“I just want our little beach town to be okay, that’s what I keep thinking about,” the new bride said as the couple prepared to head home to Cumming.
