Area Nudists Are Incurable Romantics, Too

Valentine's Day is only a small reminder of this.

With all the many dozens of roses and  boxes of candy that sold last weekend for that special day for couples (and florists and candy makers), you may have tried to come up with something different to do with a special person in your life.

For some, the answer was a chance to renew their wedding vows, or commitment to each other, during Paradise Lakes' Renewal Ceremony.

Toby Caroline, a well-known local Realtor with Sun'n Fun Realty (catering primarily to selling Nudist properties) officiated for the 10th consecutive year in a celebration of love that included all the trimmings such as a champagne toast and chocolate strawberries.

How couples dressed - or didn't - was completely up to them to remove any stress. The whole point was just to be there with loved ones. It's not what participants wore, but how they felt about each other that mattered.

So, if you're already looking ahead for a different way to celebrate next year, this ceremony is a great way to top those flowers and candy. Chances are it's like nothing you've ever done before!
