The Centre Daily Times reports 32-year-old Arthur Phillips III and his bride, 22-year-old Brittany Lurch, were arrested Saturday after taking more than $1,000 in merchandise from a Wegmans supermarket in Centre Hall.
Patton Township police say the couple was captured on surveillance footage loading a shopping cart and leaving the store without paying.
The Centre Daily Times report says the couple admitted taking the items when arrested. Police say the newlyweds told officers they'd been married a couple days earlier and took the food for their wedding reception that afternoon.
Phillips and Lurch are each charged with misdemeanor counts and are being held on $2,500 bail.
