January 11, 2009 Couple weds in Taco Bell; was the chalupa invited? Play video

(NECN/WHOI) - Even though they live in a town called Normal, Paul and Caragh Brooks admit that they are not exactly ordinary.

That helps to explain why the couple got married last Friday in a Taco Bell restaurant in their central Illinois city.

Paul and Caragh said they needed a Plan B for the ceremony because the courthouse was booked. Taco Bell was a natural since the couple likes the food and has spent some quality time there.

All of the expenses were economical with the Taco Bell fare. Caragh's dress set her back a mere $15, and the total cost of the wedding was $200.

The reception was also held at Taco Bell. Guests ordered the food straight off the menu.
