A really sweet wedding

A really sweet wedding

A couple were married at the place where they first met at the Honey Dew Donut shop where a Cyndi LaRose and her honey said, "I do."


Cyndi LaRose and Joseph David Smith were able to exchange their wedding vows in North Kingstown Rhode Island at the donut shop where they first met each other.


The donut baker was able to make the food for the wedding.

Faraq Mohamed, who is the donut shop's owner, was able to greet customers with a simple question: "Coffee or the wedding?"

A former judge conducted the wedding ceremony at the donut shop for a really sweet wedding.

The donut shop's regular customers all served as the witnesses to the marriage nuptials.


"I saw this good-looking guy standing up there," LaRose said. "He was a country-looking guy, the type I look for, the Grizzly Adams type."


They wanted to have the marriage ceremony on the beach but it was simply too cold.

Bob's comment: South Florida beach weddings are usually available year round...

The doughnut shop is a very casual place where many of their friends go to hang out anyways.
so the couple decided that it was a perfect fit for them to get married there.

"I don't even own a dress," LaRose said.

"You couldn't get me in a tie," Smith said.

The couple planned to spend a Thanksgiving weekend honeymoon at a Connecticut casino.

A really long wedding dress train...

This could very well be the longest wedding dress in China.

The bridegroom of the bride wearing a really long wedding gown contracted a local wedding dress tailor to make the 200.8-meter-long dress. The dress is 200.8 meters in honor of the 2008 olympics held in China.

See the dress here: Wedding Dress Long Train

The bride who was in south China in a city called Guangzhou walked down the aisle wearing the chinese country's longest wedding gown.

This story was reported in the newspaper called the Guangzhou Daily.

The wedding gown set a new record in China for the longest wedding dress as the previous record title holder was at 99 meters. That is a football field for you American guys...

Boy some people have way too much time and money...

Thanksgiving wedding...

Happy thanksgiving

Call me if you need a wedding performed at 561-964-5036

I performed a wedding on thanksgiving a few years ago.

When I first started doing weddings in South Florida I often thought why people did weddings on holidays...?

Well everyone is generally off from work and the family is gathered together.

And think about how hard it is to forget your anniversary guys.... :)

anyways the wedding was scheduled on thanksgiving and it was to be early afternoon.
The couple practically begged me to come and perform the wedding ceremony on this holiday. No, I did not gouge them and I always charge the same prices as listed on my website.

They invited me for thanksgiving dinner in the early afternoon and I was happy to accept.

They made 2 very large turkeys and one was roasted and the other was deep fried. The deep friend turkey was excellent. I ate until I was stuffed after the marriage ceremony was over.

I was able to return home and have dinner with the family as well.
I must have gained 5 pounds that day...

They were a very nice couple and it is almost always a pleasure to perform a wedding on the holidays and everyday - happy holidays and happy thanksgiving...

Remember to give thanks for the abundant bounty...that is the spirit that the holiday was made in....

Wedding of the oldest newly-weds in the UK

Wedding for the UK's oldest newly-weds 93 and 85 years of age.

From Ananova News

A 93 year old man and his 85 year old soon bride to be are getting set to become Britain's oldest newlyweds after a whirlwind romance.

Bob comments: I suppose when you are this age you do not have much time for a long romance...

Groom James Mason and his bride-to-be Peggy Clark had just met one another last month, as reported by the Sky News of England.

But when they first met each other at a day care center in Paignton, Devon, UK they said that "it was love at first sight."

"It's a miracle. I'm in a dream," said Peggy. "I feel like I'm going to wake up in a minute."

Bob comments: I hope they find happyness in the arms of each other

"When I introduced myself, he was the last one. There was silence and I looked at him and asked: 'Do you come here often?' I couldn't believe I'd said that!

Sounds like a pick up line from the 1970's... but hey

"His eyes were twinkling. The eyes are the windows to the soul and when you look you can tell. I knew instantly but I couldn't say because he would think I was picking him up."

Bob: When you do not have much time to waste....

Time is a valuable asset.

Bob: I cringe when I see young couples in their teens getting married, at least this couple is mature.

James added: "I thought she was a bit of alright. The twinkle was in my eyes, I can tell you! It was love at first sight." The groom said

After just three days of courting Peggy. the groom to be James popped the big question.

Will you marry me - he said...!!!

"I thought I'd better grab her when I could because we didn't want to live in sin," he said.

Bob: and one never knows how long one has on this earth - no matter what age you are...
