FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) -- Love was the most popular display item at a local Wal-Mart as two employees exchanged vows in the apparel aisle of the discount department store.
The jittery bride, Sandy Thomas, 54, walked past $11.93 NASCAR hats as the Celine Dion song "Power of Love" played over the intercom.
"This is absolutely fantastic," said the groom, Dan Harbecke, 51, after the vows were exchanged Saturday. 'I feel so good right now. I'm so in love."
The pair met last year in the store's break room. She works in women's apparel and he works in dairy.
They originally planned to get married on the beach but the store manager suggested Wal-Mart. It seemed appropriate.
Thomas' brother wasn't surprised at her choice in weddings.
