A couple got married Saturday as Tropical Storm Ophelia passed through Emerald Isle.

It was an unforgettable wedding day, as Ophelia’s tropical winds and rain bands pushed through the area, just hours earlier resulting in power outages.

“There’s only so much you can do when you wake up to a power outage on your wedding day,” the bride, Ashley Trexler said.

No, amount of wind or rain, could stand in between this special day.
