Overboard in Love! The Perri’s renew their vows aboard the Jolly Pirates
PALMBEACH ― Jolly Pirates proved the perfect venue for Lorraine and Ron Perrin to celebrate wholeheartedly their 50th Wedding Anniversary. These Aruba lovers were among the good company of plenty of loving family and a colorful guest list of local friends and many life-long friends who happily voyaged to One Happy Island to join the Perri ‘s festivities with a spirited pirate style vow re- newal ceremony.
And just like the barnacles attached to the hull of ye Jolly Pirates teak schooner, the Perri pirate party-goers clam- bered aboard deck in search of a bountiful good time. Arriving in their pirate costumes, the booty Lorraine and Ron Perri sought was not gold riches, but a treasure of lasting memories of old and new friendships forged since the couple’s first Aruba visit, in 1963.
As the trade winds snapped the Jolly Pirates schooner’s sails to life, atmosphere and magic filled the air when the Lorraine and Bob exchanged the ship’s life rings as the ship’s Captain renewed the couple’s vows with his light- hearted ceremony.
From the moment the guests stepped aboard the 85-foot schooner they realized the turquoise Aruba waters could not be a more ideal setting and with no chance of mu- tiny in sight, the merriment carried on joyfully throughout the evening. The guests and crew turned flips – literally – off the ship’s rope swing. Each aspect of the seafaring 50th wedding anniversary party provided more fun-filled photo opportunities to be included in the extensive Perri Family Aruba photo album.
If you are seeking a unique way to tie the knot or renew your vows on One Happy Island, the Jolly Pirates’ can plan you to plan your event to suit your unique style and budget.
