An Ailsa Craig-area couple has beat out 30 others in a contest to be married on a parade float during the village’s upcoming Santa Claus Parade.
The application of Katie Nigh and Trevor Vanderloo was selected, above all others, based on their personal story.
The pair met through a mutual babysitter a few years after personal tragedies.
"We met at a time in the hardest time in both of our lives and we feel so blessed to have found each other," read the contest submission from the couple.
For Katie, it was the loss of her partner.
“I lost Adam, my first husband to brain cancer. And I never thought I would get married again,” she told CTV News.
But after starting a friendship with Trevor, a relationship blossomed. The couple has now blended their children to make a family of five.
