I was wondering if people had any interesting trivia about the date they are getting married on. I found such a "calendar" on the Romanian wedding site I am on, and I found out that:
On 23 Dec 2007, Grey's Anatomy star Katherine Heigl had the winter wedding of her dreams at the Stein Eriksen Lodge in Park City, Utah to musician Josh Kelley.
Also on 23 Dec, this time 2005, actress Laura Dern married musician Ben Harper.
Other notable events on 23 Dec include:
- the last day you are allowed to have weddings in Romania before Xmas (no weddings allowed between 24 Dec - 7 Jan);
-1690 - John Flamsteed observes Uranus without realising it's undiscovered;
- 1823 - "Visit from St Nicholas" by C Moore is published in Troy (NY) Sentinel - better known as "T'was the night before Xmas"
- 1867 - first self-made millionaire (Sarah Breedlove, hair-straighteners)
- 1888 - Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh cuts off his left ear
- 1922 - BBC radio begins daily broadcasts
- 1954 - first kidney transplant is performed in Boston, USA.
- 1970 - NY World Trade Center's building reachest highest point (411m)
Looking forward to others' interesting facts!
