All of the attention on the Royal Wedding has brought back memories of a wedding 42 years ago on June 8th. Two twenty year old college students took their vows in the home of the groom's grandparents on "C" Street. There were about 20-30 guests, the pregnant maid of honor fainted and the befuddled minister droned on or so it seemed to the bride. The bride's mini dress was not exactly kosher, even then, but the groom liked it and that was all that mattered.
The honeymoon was a trip back to college in a 60s something Corvair (what an unfortunate vehicle) and back to class the next day or so.
The wedding pales in comparision to that of William and Catherine but the twenty year olds are still wed, though no longer in their twenties.
