A Stand up Paddle Board Wedding Surprise

"Thank you for working with David and coordinating what was the most wonderful special surprise I have ever had. (And that's saying something because David surprises me all the time!) Thank you times a million. I will never ever forget that day."

These two Stand Up Paddled up to Glorietta Bay beach on Coronado 02/22/14 for a surprise wedding for Tatum (bride). They have been together 5 years, he is a Navy seal and they were leaving for Virginia Beach the next morning. The day before was her birthday, they had a thing about "ocean cup cakes" and David told her the next time he gave her one, he was going to marry her. 

When they got off their SUP's to met friends on the beach, they had two boxes of "ocean cupcakes" waiting for Tatum and David, with the dress, flowers and his shirt in their friends car. I was over at another table watching this unfold as David and I had met a month before at the Maritime Museum to engineer this meeting and surprise wedding and complete their marriage license without her knowledge. 

As you can see it was a total and complete surprise for Tatum, as I walked up in my Aloha Shirt and asked them what was going on, was it a cup cake party? David said he had just proposed to her and it would be real nice if we could get married today. Well, I said I could probably help them, opened my bag, had their marriage license, ceremony and with their friends and two twin daughters as "flower girls", we had a beautiful bay side wedding.

  1. Stand-up paddle boarding apparently burst on the open air scene only a couple of years back, yet all of a sudden everybody you know has one. In the case of paddling around the lake, surfing a wide range of waves, and notwithstanding exploring whitewater, paddle boarders are all over the place. There's a justifiable reason explanation behind it. Figuring out how to inflatable SUPs is simple, it's better time than sitting in a tube in the stream, and it makes for an extraordinary low-affect exercise. Furthermore, perhaps the best part is that with a strong blend of high-impact molding, center quality, adjusting, and balancing out muscle improvement, stand-up paddle boarding is outstanding amongst other ski and snowboard cross-molding exercises you can discover for the midyear off-season.
