“We knew our first song would be “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now.’ And that got us thinking about doing a spoof of all the eighties movies we love. We wanted to relax during our first dance, so we played it then so that everyone was watching the video instead of us!”Photographs by Joel Greenberg and Edward Neary (video stills)
