PHOTO GALLERY: Tina and Tony's Wedding at Longboat Harbour

White 'just married' balloons and streamers adorn the entrance, napkins and party favors printed with 'Tina and Tony' deck the tables and attendees wear their best Italian wedding ensembles on Saturday, Jan. 28. It's almost as if a real wedding is about to take place at Longboat Harbor. But, it's just a dinner theatre showcase of 'Tiny and Tony's Italian Wedding.' The one-act is about an Italian wedding that only bride and groom want to take place, and it seems as the whole congregation has slept with either the bride or the groom.
