A first-ever wedding at ceremonial start

Postby iditafan » Wed Mar 05, 2008 8:36 pm

I hadn't seen this posted yet and thought it was note-worthy. There's been several weddings held at the end of Iditarod in Nome but this year was the first wedding in Anchorage at the Start. It involves the Burmeister family, steeped in Iditarod history...a father and two sons who are Iditarod vets and now a daughter/sister who got hitched under the banner last Saturday.
Enjoy and be sure to watch the video,
