KUPL Portland Plans 'Royal' Wedding Of Its Own

Burger King crown While the world's attention will be focused on a certain royal wedding in London tomorrow morning, Alpha Broadcasting's country KUPL Portland, Ore., will be hosting a "royal" wedding of its own. The station's "Simon in the Morning" show organized a wedding for two of the station's listeners at Burger King. Yes, Burger King, and the station suggests vows along the lines of, "With this onion ring, I thee wed." The wedding happens at 7:40 a.m., when the happy couple will don paper crowns, step up to the counter in front of family and friends and a live radio audience, and get hitched by air personality (and ordained minister) Clyde Lewis of sister station KXL FM 101. The couple will be driven to the wedding in a 1957 Bentley and will receive prizes including a weekend getaway at the Elizabeth Street Inn on the Oregon Coast and tickets to an upcoming KUPL concert, where the station promises they will be "treated like royalty."
