St. Croix - US Virgin Islands June 2004 -

The couple will appear at 1:30 pm live at www.GotoStCroix.com before they take the plunge and again at 6:30 pm for a champagne toast. Images of the underwater ceremony, taken by Doug Kaufman, will be posted on this page immediately following the ceremony! Guests from around the world have been invited to log onto www.gotostcroix.com/live to celebrate with the happy couple.

Captain John Macy, better known locally as Big Beard, will officiate the underwater ceremony. He has married more than 500 couples in more than 15 years as a licensed minister on St. Croix. Witnesses of underwater weddings sign the marriage license while underwater with a grease pencil on a waterproof document.
