Who said fairy-tale romance doesn’t happen in real life? A few minutes after meeting in person for the first time, a California woman and a New York man got hitched at the Ontario International Airport on Friday, Daily Mail reports.

The decision to marry was premeditated; reporters from CBS News were waiting at the airport to film Erica Harris and Arte Vann tie the knot. In fact, Erica was the one who informed CBS about her wedding plans and invited them to record it, so that her new mother-in-law could watch it on TV. “I believe this man deserves a lot of love, and I want to give him the love he gives me,” she said. “Calling CBS was a present to his mom, because she wouldn’t be at the wedding since we were eloping.”
