In a quintessential Bay Area love story that could only happen here, a couple just tied the knot on a moving BART train – proving once again that public transit isn’t just a way to get around, it’s a literal vehicle for romance.
Love on the Rails
Lenora and John’s wedding wasn’t your typical white-dress-and-church affair. Instead, they celebrated their commitment surrounded by fellow commuters, with a bouquet crafted entirely from BART tickets (peak recycling goals, right?). The couple’s meet-cute? A classic San Francisco narrative involving a clumsy moment at a BART station and a chivalrous rescue that sparked a love story.
A Transit-Themed Celebration
In her vows, Lenora hilariously described her now-husband as a “knight in slightly used armor” who swooped in to help her down some treacherous station stairs. The wedding party even danced to Too Short’s “Blow the Whistle” while boarding at MacArthur station, because nothing says Bay Area wedding like local hip-hop.
BART: More Than Just Transportation
BART’s official Instagram celebrated the couple, noting they met on the very transit system that would host their wedding. With flower garlands decorating the train car and passengers as unexpected wedding guests, this celebration was a testament to San Francisco’s unique, spontaneous spirit. Who says romance is dead? Certainly not this BART-loving couple.
