MOUNT LEMMON, AZ — Imagine planning to get married on the top of a mountain, but you can't get there because snow has closed roads up the mountain.
Some Pima County Sheriff's Department deputies stepped in to play an important role for a couple facing that situation.
In Arizona, for a marriage to be legal, the ceremony must be performed in front of at least two adult witnesses.
So when Dudley and Claudia Graf and their guests couldn't get to the ceremony because of snow-forced road closures on Mt. Lemmon, it left them with a big problem.
That's where the deputies come in.
They stepped in to be the official witnesses (and videographers) for the marriage!
