Local paper's coverage of a wedding

[noamnety]

Headline: Gypsy and the Internet help man find true love

Anton Anderssen waited 20 years for his fiance.

He searched the world for his love and his search paid off. On the Fourth of July, Anderssen legally married Marco, the man he's loved all his life - even before he met him.

The couple wed at Niagara-on-the-Lake in Ontario.

(snip)

The couple met a year ago through an online dating service, but Anderssen said his quest for his one true love wasn't as siple as a click of a mouse. His search started with a gypsy and a magazine article in 1985 ...

The paper doesn't have the story online, but it's from the Sterling Heights Mirror in Michigan. Seeing a story like this in a mainstream Michigan newspaper that doesn't draw any attention at all to the fact that the couple is gay is a first for me. Instead the article focuses on the circumstances around how they met, and talks about historic Niagara-on-the-Lake, where they got married, comparing it to our local Mackinac Island.

2. If you have never been to Niagra on the Lake you need to go

It is absolutely beautiful. When I meet the right guy I intend to honeymoon there and if need by get married there.
