What could make a wedding ceremony more memorable than the sun being blotted out by the moon for a few minutes?
Hundreds of couples across the path of totality decided to exchange vows and rings under the ring of fire of the total eclipse.
Some were in individual ceremonies, here and there across the day.
But in Russellville, Arkansas, and Tiffin, Ohio, there were mass weddings with hundreds of couples gathered to exchange vows.
Tiffin saw 150 couples tie the knot at their "Elope under the Eclipse" event.
Russellville saw 300 couples get hitched at their "Total Eclipse of the Heart" event.
(I‘m going to say Russellville had more participants just because of their event-naming skills.)
The next eclipse in the U.S. will be in 2044, so I wonder if this works like birthdays do for people born on February 29?
Do these husbands get to wait 20 years to forget their anniversaries?
If so, good luck finding a table at Applebees during the next eclipse; that's a lot of anniversaries in one day.
