A northeast Ohio couple had planned every detail of their wedding — except for the sound check of a Beach Boys concert next door during their ceremony.
A few bars of “God Only Knows” played as Mark Kent and Jaime Diadium exchanged vows next to the Jacobs Pavilion at Nautica in Cleveland last month.
The Plain Dealer in Cleveland reports that when the band found out about the timing of its sound check, the newlyweds’ guests were told they could attend the concert for free. Many of them wandered over for a couple of songs.
When the bride stopped by the concert, she was brought on stage for the encore and played the tambourine next to Mike Love as he sang "Fun, Fun, Fun."

Greek director Alexandro Avranas says he was seeking to give domestic abuse victims a voice in his deeply disturbing movie "Miss Violence."
Avranas said in an interview that the film was based on a true story in Germany about a grandfather who prostituted his daughter and his granddaughters to his friends. The director said he was driven to make a film to ”speak all about these children who have no voice. ”
He said while the actors grew depressed due to the movie’s subject matter “they had the feeling that they are helping other persons to stop doing this, to see a way to make a revolution. That was our hope, our motive.”
The film premiered Monday in competition at the Venice Film Festival.
