The Wedding of the Sea Festival, an annual Atlantic City summer tradition for many years, returns to the city's Ducktown neighborhood today.

Coinciding with the Mass celebrating the Feast of the Assumption of Mary being held today at noon at Boardwalk Hall, followed by the procession to the ocean for the Wedding of the Sea blessing, the festival will feature games, music and food vendors from many of Atlantic City's favorite eateries.
