This couple tied the knot in Red Sox shirts before heading to Fenway for Opening Day

When Chris Doggett and his fiancee Katarzyna filed for their marriage license at Boston City Hall on Monday, they mentioned to city staff that they planned to get married Thursday morning before heading to Fenway for Opening Day.

It would be the bride and her 5-year-old son’s first baseball game, they explained.

City registrar Patty McMahon told Boston.com that after the couple left the building her staff came to her with a request — could they wear Red Sox shirts on Thursday to support the couple when they got married?

McMahon, who said she’s been working as registrar for about six years, said it was the first wedding ceremony she’s presided over on Opening Day where the bride and groom wore Red Sox shirts for the occasion.
