a truly incredible story…

When Chris Hulett asked Keni Carter to marry him, they knew they wouldn’t have much time to plan the wedding. Chris is suffering from Melanoma Cancer and, according to his doctors, will likely pass within a matter of days.  Not letting that stand in the way of them being wed, the two were married Friday, January 29th in the hospital chapel at Athens Regional Medical Center in Athens, GA (photos of the wedding can be viewed here).

The marriage of Chris Hulett and Keni Carter is one of the more incredible wedding stories we've heard.

Hulett is a Stephens County Sheriff’s Deputy in Athens. Last April, he was involved in a car wreck that broke his neck. While in the hospital, doctors discovered the Melanoma. He asked Keni to marry him back in December, but didn’t set a date. On Friday, they decided to go for it and get married that day. The hospital put together an impromptu reception hall where friends and family could gather for the ceremony.

“It turned one of the gloomiest days into the best day of my life.” Hulett said.

Even if you’re not a fan of the Philadelphia Phillies, you can’t deny that shortstop Jimmy Rollins is one of the more likable guys in the league… ok, maybe that doesn’t go for Mets and Braves fans. Anyways, Rollins married longtime girlfriend Johari Smith on January 23rd in the Cayman Islands. Shockingly, their wedding photos have been made public. You can view them here and here.

Rollins and Smith’s wedding photos were taken by Rebecca Davidson Photography of the Cayman Islands.

Here’s an all-time classic entry for the bizarre wedding file: an 11-year-old girl in Bulgaria has given birth on her wedding day. Kordeza Zhelyazkova gave birth to a baby girl, Violeta, while still dressed in white.

Just to clarify, this is the baby... not the bride

Kordeza says she met the baby’s father, 19-year-old Jeliazko Dimitrov, on a playground at her school. They had no idea what a condom was when they  began their sexual relationship.

So, let me do the math… will Kordeza still be in high school when Violeta is starting kindergarten? Maybe they can share a ride to school!
