Yes, they are. I’ve seen it for myself with my own eyes, I didn’t hear about it from anyone, no it’s not gossip it’s a done deal.
Eric and Ikna met online and decided to go on their first date to Carnivale a Latin American Fusion restaurant. Eric being the nice easygoing guy that he is waited for Ikna at the restaurant even though Ikna was late. She showed up one hour later with a valid excuse, she was lost. It was then that Eric decided that she will never be lost again because she’ll always be by his side.
They both enjoy going to the movies, dining and opera presentations.
My observation of these two are that they are a very fun loving couple, the thing I like most about Eric is that he’s a gentleman around Ikna or should I say around anyone for that matter. Being a gentleman works so much to his benefit. I’m sure this is what swept Ikna off her feet. This guy opens every door for Ikna including the car door, he so loves to serve Ikna and make sure that she’s OK.
To the world today that is not the “Macho” thing to do but Eric knows where it has gotten him, “brother never stop serving your wife”. It will be reciprocated and you’ll have a happy marriage many will wish they’ve had. Don’t look at what you do for her and measure it against what she does for you. All you have to do is your part and the rest will follow. If you seek to always be of service to her it leaves you no time to see if she’s being of service to you or not and she’ll have no other choice then but to be the same and you’ll live happily ever after.
Guys, know that you have a friend here in Aruba always and I’m looking forward to many family portraits of you guys in the future.
This wedding was on the Renaissance Island, there were a little less than 100 family and close friends. It was a great ceremony and an awesome evening. Two cultures intermingling together and being bonded by love. Ikna’s descendants are from Colombia, so we’ve had a large amount of Latinos or should I say Rumberos and Eric’s descendants are from Lithuania, while it was yet part of the Soviet Union so one big party.
The guest were so in a party mode that all they really wanted was for the DJ to play music and the bar to remain open. They didn’t want to stop dancing for dinner. Dj Tino from Cyclone Promotion kept the guests on their feet the entire night.
Rafael “Juni” Jones from Aruba Renaissance was the wedding planner and he did a superb job with the decoration and setup of the island. The food was…..that’s a whole other post. I’ll just hint, yummy!

I’ve just had to make use of the sun to get a shot with some flare. Here is Eric reading out his vows to Ikna……….

I’ll have to break this up in two posts, I have too many great shots and I’ve gotten only through preparation and ceremony so I’ll continue in part II with after ceremony and reception. Stay tuned!
