Couple who met in supermarket marry at store

LOWER BURRELL — Attention all shoppers: Wedding in aisle 13.

A couple who met at a supermarket have tied the knot there with canned carrots and peas among their wedding guests.

A newspaper reported 69-year-old Larry Spiering and 61-year-old Becky Smith married last Sunday at the Community Supermarket in Lower Burrell, where they met 10 years ago.

Smith said she was working at the supermarket when Spiering walked up and gave her a piece of paper with his name and phone number on it.

She said it was only fitting that they married in the aisle where they met.

The couple said they picked April 1, which was Easter Sunday, because it was close to two other important dates: Spiering celebrates his birthday on April 2, Smith on April 3.
