CHICAGO - Kevin Anderson and Katherine Harris took their love to new heights this morning as they wed on The Ledge, Skydeck, at Willis Tower.
The couple had initially proposed to exchanging vows in Las Vegas on 7/7/07, but decided against it. Then even considered marrying in Beijing on 8/8/08 for the Olympics. They finally agreed to marry on 9/9/09 on The Ledge, to celebrate their love of heights.
They were one of the many superstitious couples to marry today. Numerologists say the number nine is associated with forgiveness, compassion and success.

The service was performed by Rev. Dr. George Cairns of Chesterton, Indiana, who is active in environment and civil rights issues including protecting the Indiana Dunes.
Rev. Cairns is co-founder of the nonprofit Turtle Island Project and recently founded the nonprofit Celtic Christianity Today.
The service had several Celtic Christianity inspired elements.
Congratulations to Katherine Harris and Kevin Anderson!
