“To be silly. Not too silly. Just the right amount of silly.”

That was the promise made between husband and wife Cullen and Kaitlyn O’Hara as they exchanged vows at their New Year’s Eve wedding.

The short ceremony was peppered with kisses — each vow punctuated with an embrace — the unconventional couple unable to wait until the finish.

“We’re making it up as we go along,” Dick Okada said of what he called “Wedding 2.0”.

A relative by marriage, Mr Okada unofficially officiated the service at the World Heritage Centre in St George. The pair had an authorised union at the government offices in Hamilton.

In their self-penned oath, the pair pledged “to be good, kind and loving,

“To provide hugs, scratches and snacks.

“To tell jokes and continue to find even better jokes.”

And finally, “To be your best friend and loving companion forever and ever.”

Mr O’Hara called the wedding a celebration of his “legendary” wife.

He said: “It’s been fantastic to celebrate in St George’s whilst the onion drop was going down.

“It created a really lively and fun atmosphere for all of our guests.

“We couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. It exceeded our expectations with flying colours and gold stars.”

Mrs O’Hara said the pair had fallen in love with the St George’s community.

“The charm and the history reflects on our relationship and love.

“We didn’t even think of doing it anywhere else. It’s the best place on the Island,” she said, adding: “Plus, front row seats to the fireworks.”

The bride told The Royal Gazette: “Cullen is my rock. We were married from the day we met.”
