Face Transplant and Love

A Texan man who became the first in the United States to receive a full face transplant after a 2008 power line accident has wed another burn victim he met at a support group.

Dallas Wiens (Weens) and Jamie Nash exchanged vows Saturday at the Fort Worth church where he was critically hurt.

Pastor Scott Cox said about 200 people attended the wedding at Ridglea Baptist Church. Cox said the couple told him they believe God brought them together.

Wiens was painting the church in 2008 when he touched a power line. He suffered facial injuries and was blinded. In 2011, he underwent a full face transplant at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.

Nash's hands and back were burnt in a 2010 traffic accident.
