A Bride And Groom Went To A Kansas City Royals Playoff Game During Their Wedding

And they'll always be Royals...

Tricia Freeman was quite possibly the happiest bride in the world on Saturday.

Here she is with her brand-new husband, Kyle Kovach.

On Thursday, the born-and-bred Kansas City, Missouri, resident lucked out by winning two tickets to one of this weekend's Royals vs. Toronto Blue Jays playoff games in an office raffle.

The only problem? Her wedding was Saturday, a date she had picked out more than a year ago.

The tickets were either for Friday night's game or Saturday afternoon's game.

Her rehearsal dinner was set in stone for Friday night, so she and Kovach made their decision.

"It was pretty immediate," she told BuzzFeed Life of making the choice. "The moment we got the tickets, I thought, 'I cant miss the game, so how can we make this work?'"

Freeman has never had the chance to go to a playoff game for her all-time favorite team.

"I wasn't alive when they won the World Series in 1985, and I couldn't go to any games last year," she said. "Now that we get to be a part of this, it's a once-in-a-lifetime thing."

With a 1 p.m. ceremony at Kansas City's St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church, a 3:07 p.m game at Kauffman Stadium, and a 6:30 p.m. reception at Club 1000, time was tight, but the dedicated fans did some brainstorming to make it work.

Without traffic, the driving distances among the locations is less than 20 minutes each, so they came up with a plan.

They took photos for about an hour after the one-hour ceremony, got to the game a little bit late, and stayed long enough to have a beer (for Kovach), a hot dog (for Freeman), and captured some unforgettable pictures.

As for the bridal party? The couple arranged it so that they could tailgate in the parking lot while they were in the game.

The seats, Freeman explained, were part of what sealed the deal. They were section 138, row U, seats 1 and 2 — essentially, dugout seats right on first baseline.

Freeman wore a Royals zip-up hoodie over her wedding dress, while Kovach put on some Royals socks.

In the end, the game may have ended up being more important for Kovach.

Born in St. Louis, he's a longtime Cardinals fan, but Freeman swears that she's worked hard to sway him over to her side.

This game may have finally sealed the deal.
