Short story:
Stevie Wonder marries Syreeta Wright in Burnette Baptist Church, Detroit, Michigan, USA. The couple hold a gala reception for 300 guests (including Berry Gordy) in the Mauna Loa Restaurant, before flying off to Bermuda for their honeymoon. The marriage will last just eighteen months, but Wonder will be inspired by their relationship to write the 1972 song You Are The Sunshine Of My Life about Syreeta.
