It’s Valentine’s Day, and what better way to give back to our community, than to host a free group wedding in Imperial Beach at the Soapy Joe’s Tunnel of Love Wedding.  We were honored to wed 10 couples, who represented a broad representation of San Diego’s people – from military service members to firefighters, millennials to boomers, high school sweethearts to artists – many with their friends, family and children in attendance.

The ceremony featured a festive 50-foot celebration aisle created by turning the overhead vacuum booms into ceremonial arches with LED lights and flowers, and a layered blue and white runner under foot.  Couples walked down the aisle accompanied by acoustic guitar towards a 15’ wide blue and white balloon arch, with our own Soapy mascot as ceremonial ring bearer.

Each participating couple received a professional mini-photo shoot, free car washes for the life of their cars and $500 in gifts for their registry. 

One lucky couple, as voted on by our fans through social media channels will win a five-day, four-night honeymoon cruise to Mexico.  Voting is open until February 21, 2020.  The winning couple will be announced February 24.

Congratulations to the happy couples and their families!
