On 2 -22-22 many brides and grooms chose to say I do.

And we got invited to one couple's wedding for a story you'll only see on Erie News Now, this Erie couple tied the knot at the Erie Yacht Club on the palindrome date like thousands of Americans.

The wedding was something they all looked forward to but after the sudden loss of their 12 year old son Kris to the online "Pass out" challenge they almost canceled their special day. 

"It was terrible. He picked a lot of the songs that were playing tonight and had a lot of the good ideas", said Kelly Rodland the bride who lost her son. 

Thousands of couples married today, Las Vegas even said it may be the largest amount of wedding they've held in one day since 7-7-07 which was 4,500 weddings.
