Border Wedding Demonstrates Love Has No Boundaries

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep with congratulations to newlyweds. Brian Houston and Evelia Reyes held a trans-national marriage. He's American. She's Mexican. She cannot easily visit, though he's trying to get her a green card. So they chose to marry on the border between San Diego and Tijuana.
