When Jane Blake said, "I do," it wasn't clear whether her voice trembled from emotion or from the piercing cold.
She and Miles Wakefield were getting married under Arctic conditions in a ceremony in an igloolike church in Jukkasjarvi, Sweden.
The couple traveled from England to the small Swedish town, 124 miles north of the Arctic Circle, so they could exchange vows in a 21-degree chill. During their ceremony in the Ice Church, three other British couples waited to walk down the aisle of the frosty chapel, which adjoins another ice structure, the Ice Hotel.
