Groom Interrupts Wedding To Tweet

RENEE MONTAGNE, host:

Then the groom reached into his pocket for his cell phone. He proceeded to update both his Twitter and Facebook accounts, announcing his marriage. Tweeting completed, the minister concluded: It's now official on Facebook. It's official in my book. You may kiss the bride.
