<p class="mol-para-with-font">A couple who survived the deadly white supremacist car attack during clashes in Charlottesville last summer finally got to tie the knot on Saturday.<br />
Marcus Martin, who was pictured mid-air in a powerful photo taken when the Dodge Challenger struck on August 12, married his fiancée Marissa Blair in Gordonsville, Virginia, during an outdoor ceremony paid for by well-wishers.<br />
Martin, 26, pushed Blair, 27, out of the way when the car struck. He suffered a broken leg while the couple&#8217;s friend, 32-year-old paralegal and fellow anti-fascist protester Heather Heyer, was killed.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">The nation woke up to the disquieting image of Marcus Martin, who was airborne in a powerful photo taken when the Dodge Challenger plowed into a crowd of protesters on August 12, 2017.<br />
Martin suffered a fractured leg, but survived to marry his fiancée Marissa Blair in Gordonsville, Virginia, during an outdoor ceremony on Saturday paid for by well-wishers.<br />
The couple had delayed their big day in the aftermath of the Charlottesville debacle and the death of their friend, Heyer.<br />
The group of friends joined other civic minded individuals demonstrating against thousands of white supremacists who had massed in the Virginia town to protest against the decision to remove a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, last year August.<br />
&#8216;He always said he would do any and everything to protect me and he proved it,&#8217; Blair told <a class="class" href="http://www.nbc29.com/story/38176919/after-surviving-the-deadly-aug-12-car-attack-gordonsville-couple-gets-dream-wedding" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">NBC29</a>.<br />
&#8216;It proves hate won&#8217;t win and it proves that there are more good people in the world than there are bad and that love will win.&#8217;</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;It was so fast. All he could think was to push me. He saved me then he was under the car. I checked myself and then immediately thought, where&#8217;s Marcus?<br />
&#8216;I started looking where the car had hit people. I saw his hat had blood all over it but he wasn&#8217;t there. I found him with no blood on him.<br />
&#8216;We were taken to the hospital and I overheard someone say that the heavyset woman who they were doing CPR on had died.<br />
&#8216;I started asking around but I knew that it was my friend Heather. She had been standing right in front of Marcus.&#8217;<br />
Blair continued: &#8216;It was senseless. People said we were wrong for being there but it was that guy [driver] who was wrong. Why would anyone think that it&#8217;s okay to do this? He rammed into us.&#8217;<br />
James Alex Fields Jr., the man police say drove the car that killed Heyer and injured Martin, has been charged with murder.</p>
