LOVE, SASK. — A small Saskatchewan village is looking to put Love on the map by becoming a unique wedding destination.
“Everybody should be in Love at least once in their lives,” Marvin Torwalt, who is known as the resident Love historian, says with a big smile.
People from all over travelled to the community after Cupid's strike but there was nowhere official to exchange their vows. Vallier says the project cost more than $65,000 but the promotion of love in Love is worth every penny. One wedding has already taken place and another is scheduled for May.The village had its genesis in the early 1930s as families searched for reprieve from the effects of the Great Depression farther south. Sawmills sprang up, bringing along homesteads and households eager for opportunity and affordable land.
“They must have been the talk of the town that they were sweet on each other,” Vallier says with a laugh.
