We just returned from Aruba last Tuesday after renewing our wedding vows for our 50th wedding anniversary on January 16th. My dear friend and colleague and representative Edwina Werleman did a beautiful setup for my husband and I. I posted all of the photos if you would like to see. Diane Keijzer and her husband attended as well as Robert Arenz and his wife. Robert took some very beautiful photos. Reverend Robert Gibson performed the most meaningful and beaufiful ceremony. In fact, our Aruba honeymoon was the better then the first

. Maybe it was because we chose Miami as our honeymoon destination (had never heard of Aruba) and maybe because we were both so very young (18 years old to enjoy it) As far as having a wedding planner, it has to fit within a couples budget. Planning a wedding from so far away can be very difficult. The couple needs to feel confident that they will have someone that is knowlegable and will work with them and will be there for them on a continuing basis for any questions or concern that they may have all through the planning process.
