The wedding and theft happened in July, but the wedding party hopes someone will come forward with information about the thief.

"You don't really usually have that perfect day. We want to look back on this as a great day. This kind of put a scar on it," said Sandra McClure, the mother of the bride.

The bride's mother warns all of us to be aware of our surroundings, even on the most perfect day.
