With several dozen invited guests in the room, the couple sat in a decorated booth with Ryan Green of Normal, a friend of theirs who became an ordained minister online. As Green, dressed in a T-shirt, officiated, they said the same vows.
“I promise to honor your life’s choices, comfort you in sorrow, celebrate in your joy and support your endeavors…,” they said. “Whatever the world brings, I take you as my partner.”
Business went on as usual in the front area of Taco Bell, and some customers in the Friday night supper rush stopped to watch.
Shortly before the ceremony, Kathy Brooks, the groom’s mother, said, “This is the way to go — there’s no stress.”
She said her son proposed on New Year’s Eve, and the wedding was planned in about a week. The couple bought wedding rings on clearance for 80 percent off, spending about $45 per ring.
Green told them they could have the ceremony anywhere they wanted, and he asked them where they’d like it to be.
Their answer was Taco Bell, where they enjoy hanging out.
