The Perfect Catch



The happy couple after feeding stingrays.

 July 11, 2011, was the first day of Nicole and Trever's life together, and it started in a rather unusual place: under a sea of 10,000 sea creatures. That's right! Yesterday, Nicole and Trever tied the knot within SEA LIFE Minnesota's 300ft tunnel, accompanied by friends, family, sharks, and sea turtles!

Nicole and Trever always wanted a wedding on a beach, but with the economic downturn and a tight budget, they turned to the next best option: getting married under 10,000 sea creatures at SEA LIFE Minnesota Aquarium!

The nontraditional couple drew attention to their surroundings by beginning their vows, "before these witnesses both human and fish". Trever and Nicole gladly repeated each word after their friend, and ordained minister, before turning toward each other to say "I do"!

After the ceremony, the newly weds did not throw rice to celebrate the occasion; instead, they sprinkled capelin over the side of our stingray tank!

Thank you so much to Nicole and Trever for sharing this special day with all of us at SEA LIFE Minnesota!
