The headline said, ‘Local Family Torn Apart by Secret Wedding.’ My eyes widened in disbelief, and I heard gasps throughout the room. My parents looked frightened, their fury temporarily replaced by disbelief. My knees weakened as the news piece progressed. ‘This can’t be true,’ I said to my husband, who was as stunned. How had our private wedding turned into a public spectacle? My thoughts raced, attempting to piece things together.

My mouth dropped open as I viewed footage from my wedding interwoven with interviews from family members. The movie captured our beautiful ceremony, with my friends and extended family smiling and laughing. However, the happy scenes were interrupted by melancholy interviews. ‘We had no idea it was happening,’ Aunt Karen’s voice remarked off-screen. I felt a knot tighten in my stomach. Seeing such a significant event on the news felt like a violation.
