UPDATE: The “love birds” have been identified as Emily Zilich and Chase Thomas! According to Erin Burns, spokeswoman for Louis Armstrong International, Zilich and Thomas had planned for a wedding in April- until coronavirus cancelled the idea. Then, they started thinking about having a wedding in October, but finally decided to get married at the airport. Immediately after the ceremony, which was attended by only their pastor and their photographer, the newlyweds hopped on a flight to Mexico–for their honeymoon.
NEW ORLEANS, La. (BRPROUD) – Love is in the air!
