Wedding at Minn State Fair

ST. PAUL, Minn. — There is plenty to see at the Minnesota State Fair, but in between the massive crowds, rides, and stuff on a stick, is a wedding on a stick.

Kathryn and Damian, a St. Paul couple, met five years ago and decided a day before the fair, to tie the knot at the Crossroads Chapel on the fairgrounds.

“I grew up at the fair, we came every year, we still come five or six times a year, it seems natural to have my wedding here,” Kathryn Sanchez said. “I’m surprised I’m the first one, I would think everyone would want to do it at the fair.”

Friends and family attended the 10:00 a.m. wedding, the first ever for Crossroads Chapel, which has been at the fair for about 35 years.

It was Kathryn’s idea to have the fairgrounds as the venue. She hopes her new husband will someday appreciate the fair as much as she does.

“It’s really a special day, I’m so happy,” Damian said.

Kathryn said she doesn’t have a honeymoon location in mind yet — but they may end up choosing the fairgrounds.

Wedding cake-on-a-stick was not available, since the decision to get married happened with only one day notice.
