According to the airport, Thomas and Zilich were supposed to be married in April, but like many couples, had to change their plans because of the coronavirus pandemic.
“They rescheduled the wedding for October but weren’t sure that they would be able to have the dream wedding they wanted,” the airport tweeted.
