This couple is getting married during the Eclipse

The solar eclipse is a once-in-a-lifetime event for many of us and one couple is making it a day they’ll never forget.  Samantha Adams and Cameron Kuhn are tying the knot right when the first solar eclipse enters its totality.

The high school sweethearts from Kansas City, Missouri are exchanging vows at approximately 1:07 p.m. as the moon blocks the sun at the Castle Bridge Event Center in St. Joseph, Missouri.  The wedding party and their guests will be decked out in solar safety shades while they witness the nuptials and Samantha will read a quote from astronomer Carl Sagan.

The bride has always loved astronomy and even sent out space-themed wedding invitations for the total eclipse of the heart wedding.  “Space has just always been intriguing and intimidating in all the best ways,” Samantha says of her astronomy obsession.  And when her fiancé proposed, she asked if they could plan the wedding to coordinate with the eclipse.

She is even wearing heels with a design of the galaxy on them for the ceremony and she’ll be changing into more comfy galaxy Vans sneakers for the reception.  And they’re serving cupcakes made to look like the galaxy and the Milky Way and their wedding cake topper even reads “to the moon and back.”
