US Marine Corps Corporal Caleb Earwood and his fiancee Maggie, both from Asheville, North Carolina, stood back-to-back with their eyes closed as they each said a prayer, during which Caleb explained he thanked God for blessing him with such a beautiful wife.
‘We were about to take our first steps in life together, and we didn’t want to take a step without it being in God’s will,’ Caleb, 21, told Today.com…
In order to avoid seeing one another before the ceremony, the couple positioned themselves facing away from one another, and kept their eyes closed during the prayer, which Maggie, 22, said helped her to feel all the more confident about walking down the aisle alongside Caleb.
‘When I first grabbed his hand, he was shaking really bad, so I knew he was really nervous,’ she explained. ‘It relieved me to know the person I was getting ready to marry felt the same way about God.’
