We’ve caught election fever at The Knot so we couldn’t resist sharing our favorite facts and photos of the candidates’ weddings. While Barack and Mitt might differ on topics like the economy, social issues, and foreign policy, I think one thing we can all agree on is that they looked fabulous on their wedding day!
