If supermarkets be the food of love, then Fina Nikolos and Jack Frankel have Whole Foods Market in Coral Springs, Florida to thank; that's where they met on a rainy day in May, and that's where they married on Monday.

Nikolos, 67, and Frankel, 75, were wedded in the supermarket's cafeteria before friends and family and a bemused group of employees and customers, the Sun-Sentinel reported.

The elderly couple decided to tie the knot in the same place where they first set eye on each other, when Nikolos offered Frankel a lift in her car as he was waiting, bag in hand, for the rain to stop at the supermarket entrance.
