WEDDINGS * A BIT OF PARADISE* A TIKI HUT MEANT FOR TWO

Friends and family of Robert and Anne Lynch Graybosch received the couple's wedding announcements the day they were married by a tiki hut on the coast of Jamaica.

The resort-package ceremony was easier than planning a big wedding in South Bend, Robert explains, especially since Anne's job had moved her to Chicago. "They basically plan everything for you including the music, the minister," he says.

Robert and Anne met through a mutual friend while they were both working at Hacienda restaurants - he on Grape Road, she at Scottsdale Mall. They had known each other for a year and announced their engagement before the Jamaica trip.

"We wanted to do a romantic getaway," Robert says. "We got married 15 feet from the Caribbean Sea," on the second day of a weeklong trip.

The couple brought back photographs and a videotape of their Sept. 6 wedding.
