Snowed-out wedding goes off a day late, without a hitch

NEW YORK (AP) — Mother Nature was an unexpected guest for a Manhattan couple's wedding and her gift was a doozy: a record-breaking blizzard that made their wedding a memorable one — even if it was a day late.

The restaurant, Riverpark on Manhattan's east side, offered the couple a 10:30 a.m. spot on Sunday — but they would have to keep the dinner menu that was already being prepared.

Some of the guests at the 70-person wedding threw an impromptu rehearsal dinner party Saturday night at their hotel near Grand Central Terminal, going out into the snowy cold to get pizzas and alcohol.
