Title: I do, I do
Yo ho, Yo ho! A Pirate's life for them
This article was adorable, it was about a novelty wedding in Fernandina Beach. "When Eric Childers and his girlfriend, Robin Rafloski decided to marry" she gave him full reign on planning the wedding. He was very resourceful and did it with flare. He decided to do a pirate theme and had the wedding party dressed appropriately, but the bride came in normal formal dress. The big thing that made this sorry so interesting was the fact that they were both about middle aged. They continued the ceremony in pirate fashion with skull and crossbones, maps for invitations, swords, tiki torches and Jolly Rogers flags. If you think you want to check it all out. Click A spread in the newspaper certainly beats just a simple little announcement.
Nancy's Comment: How often do you hear about middle aged people preparing to get married in such a fashion...this kind of novelty wedding makes news and especially when the groom get to do all the planning. It seems to put the romance back into marriage. More amazing they both had been previously married more than once...actually a few times....and yet that didn't discourage them....I think they did it up right....I really do think that romance is still alive at any age.....You just have to find it....

I think this woman is very trusting. Weddings are a big deal to women for her to just hand over the planning to her future husband. That was a very interesting theme for a wedding and sounded like he did a good job
