With a bonfire and white Christmas lights twinkling in the trees, Native actress Tantoo Cardinal married Hollywood actor John Lawlor on a misty Thursday night. Jan. 14.
Dressed in a purple cape and dress, Tantoo, 37, said "I do" to Lawlor, 46, who wore a B.C. Indian sweater in a ceremony that took place in the backyard Edmonton home of Cardinal's friend.
Holding candles, more than 50 guests looked on as a minister conducted the wedding.
A few days after the wedding, Lawlor had to return to California because of work commitments. Tantoo, however, must remain in Canada until paperwork for American immigration is completed.
Tantoo says she'll return to California as soon as the paperwork "squeezes through the system."
As for honeymoon plans, Tantoo says "I'll be glad if we can just get to the same place."
Tantoo Cardinal, who was born in the Metis community of Anzac, Alberta, is a well-known movie actress who rose to stardom in the movie Loyalties, which aired last year on CBC television.
