In the humid and hot air around 6 p.m., as I approached the bridge, a man took a photo of a woman leaning against the opening of the walkway. Moments later she hugged him.
Justices of the Peace have performed marriages on this bridge. I once witnessed a proposal here. Two photographers earlier this week took shots of two young women embracing one another in the middle of the street leading on to the bridge. I officiated at a wedding last Saturday and overheard the bride refer to the "bridge pictures" that would be part of the day's program. One December, "bridge pictures" were taken before the service at St. James, and the party arrived at the church coatless and freezing.
What is it about this bridge, love and marriage?
