Wedding at borderpact: The couple knew a border patrol, married guests around the border

Karen Mahoney and her new husband, Brian Ray, told CNN television that they met 35 years ago when they were finally engaged in March. They say they joined in love of skiing. But Mahoney said it's just one thing that matters to him: to have his parents and his 96-year-old grandmother at the wedding.

She is the only one who still lives by grandparents, so it was very important for me to be there to see the happiest day of my life”, the bride said.

The most important part of the day for us was when we promised each other and wanted my parents and grandmother to be witnesses in this case”, she added.

The United States has imposed restrictions on travel with Canada since the beginning of the pandemic and has extended these measures several times. Air travel is allowed, but the bride's parents refused to risk it, especially considering Grandma's age, broadcast Express.

Mahoney said the couple have a friend who works on the border patrol who had previously helped them arrange a meeting with the family on the border, including the case when Ray had asked her daughter's hand to her father. So they sought help again from their friend.

He explained the rules, including the conditions for staying in relevant territories and not sharing anything with each other and informed the patrol of what would happen if other members noticed it on security cameras.
