There's some dark humor to appreciate in this image as the couple makes the most of an unexpected change of venue. Of course, the loss of a major employer is no laughing matter for people who live in the area:
As the second largest employer in Queens County, the immediate loss of 100 jobs is a blow to economy, Mayor John Leefe said.
"They always say hope for the best and plan for the worst," Leefe said. "White Point is a major employer in the community and this has hit its employees so hard, not just from a work perspective but for those people who work there, this is part of their lives. The emotions of course are running high. They're really grieving over the loss of a place that was very near and dear to so many people's hearts."



LIKE A BOSS
what a great attitude this couple has. Gifts and material things can be replaced, lives can't. Congratulations to them!!
I agree! I love their attitude and they they valued the wedding vows, not the material possessions. I actually really like this picture. At least they had a memorable day and a unique backdrop. I do hope though that the resort's insurance reimburses them for their lost gifts.
For better or worse, eh?
What a great attitude-they are certainly off to a rocky start but sounds like they will be together forever!
Fire. So quuickly, you take. A memory of what was. Why do I see nothing, other than a burn?
