PALM BEACH, ARUBA (SEPTEMBER 9, 2009) – Wednesday September 9, 2009 is a special date for many and a popular date for weddings. On this day, 15 wedding couples will exchange their vows in Aruba. At the Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino, Gina de Simone & Michael Novia united as one as they held their traditional Kunuku wedding ceremony and cocktail event on Marriott’s Tradewinds Beach. “To us, 09-09-09 is such a unique date as it will not occur for another 100 years, that’s why we choose for this date”, Michael Novia explained. The newly weds are loyal visitors to the island and the Aruba Marriott. With their wedding proposal taking place last February on Marriott’s beach and a perfect blessing ceremony on September 9, 2009, this special date will contribute to the beautiful memories Gina and Michael cherish for Aruba.
