i just got back from an outdoors Philly Pops concert at Independence Mall, where i saw Ben Franklin and Betsy Ross get hitched....apparently we, as good tax-paying citizens of Philadelphia, paid for this union. according my friend, Christine, they will spend their wedding night at the Four Seasons hotel, and the honeymoon, where else, in Philadelphia.
The Real Wedding of Benjamin Franklin and Betsy Ross
In real life, the city’s well-known Benjamin Franklin (Ralph Archbold) and Betsy Ross (Linda Wilde) re-enactors fell in love and decided to get married. In a public ceremony with Independence Hall as a backdrop, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter will officiate over the nuptials with the Grammy-winner Peter Nero and the Philly POPS providing the wedding march. The couple, attendants and several of their family and friends will don Colonial attire.
