KMBC: Couple Gets Married While Mother is in Labor

At 35 weeks pregnant, Sara went into labor - just three days before she and her fiance were supposed to get married. A goal they had before the baby arrived, but their son had other plans. 

With the help of their care team at Saint Luke's East Hospital, Sara and Brandon were married by another soon-to-be-dad who was ordained and heard what the couple was hoping to accomplish before their son made his entrance. 

Mom and dad sat down with KMBC to talk about the whirlwind day and what it meant to them.
