Wedding of paramedics takes place with ambulance as backdrop: ‘Felt only right’
Paramedics Wayne Marshall, 37, and Sarah Marshall recently tied the knot in a unique wedding ceremony held at the Creebridge House Hotel in Scotland. Both Wayne and Sarah work for the Scottish Ambulance Service in Dumfries and Galloway, making their choice of venue even more fitting.
The couple’s special day included an unexpected twist when they used an ambulance as a backdrop for their wedding ceremony. Despite the unconventional setting, Wayne described the day as “fantastic” and expressed his gratitude for being able to celebrate with friends, family, and colleagues.
Wayne, who has been with the health care service for over eight years, shared that they played a prank on their guests by pretending to have lost the rings, only to have them discovered under a chair. The couple’s shared passion for their work brought them together, and it felt right to incorporate an ambulance into their wedding photos.
With the help of an off-duty colleague, the couple was able to feature a non-operational ambulance in the background of their pictures. This unique touch added a personal and meaningful element to their special day, showcasing their dedication to their profession.
Sarah Marshall highlighted the deep understanding she and Wayne have of the job and its challenges, noting that their colleagues have been supportive of their relationship. The couple felt at home at each station where they work and were grateful for the presence of their coworkers at the wedding.
In addition to their human guests, Wayne and Sarah were joined by their beloved cockapoo, Archie, who added an extra layer of joy to the celebration. Dressed for the occasion, Archie became a part of the couple’s special day, making it even more memorable.
The couple’s wedding has garnered positive reactions on social media, with many describing it as “beautiful.” The unique backdrop of the ambulance, coupled with the couple’s shared passion for their work, created a truly special and unforgettable wedding day for Wayne and Sarah Marshall.
