1 min read

A couple, who met several years ago at a Star Trek convention, will be married on the USS Enterprise Bridge inside Star Trek: The Exhibition after winning a contest offered by the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia.

As reported by The Examiner, Brad Siegel and Kate Erwin are the lucky couple who have won the wedding package from the Franklin Institute, after receiving the most votes online.
The prize for the lucky couple will consist of the wedding, a four-hour reception, wedding cake, champagne and several nights accommodation at a local hotel.

Brad and Kate met three years ago at a Star Trek convention in Chicago. “Our relationship continued after returning home, and in March of 2008, Brad proposed to me on stage at a Star Trek convention in New Jersey,” explained Kate.

“…when we learned of the opportunity being offered at The Franklin Institute, we were ecstatic,” said Kate. “Nothing would make us happier than to be able to pledge our lives to each other in the Star Trek universe, among our family, friends, and fellow Star Trek fans.”
