Couple marries on fire truck

It was a gown for her, a tuxedo for him and firefighter helmets for both. A local couple got married Saturday on a Rutland City fire truck. Tim Barrett and Lori Paolucci said their vows in a ladder truck basket about a hundred feet inthe air behind the fire house on Center Street. The groom said he wanted something very different from his traditional first wedding. His father Jack was a Rutland firefighter, so he asked Chief Robert Schlachter for his blessing to use the truck.
