When Andy and Jeff were married, they didn't need to decorate their car with a 'Just Married' sign as Andy already had one attached to the back of her wheelchair.
The wheelchair bride and her happy groom made their day all about them, with bridal party lunchboxes (instead of bouquets) and a cupcake tower in lieu of a cake. Plus, Andy and Jeff shut all the naysayers up when a stunningly beautiful Andy wheeled herself down the aisle.
