On April 26, 1986, as the world's worst nuclear accident spewed invisible poison into the atmosphere near Pripyat, Ukraine, a young couple exchanged vows just kilometers from the burning Chernobyl reactor. Unaware that their wedding day would become the first chapter of a life permanently altered by catastrophe, they celebrated amidst the unfolding crisis, their personal joy starkly juxtaposed against a backdrop of imminent disaster.
