Rocklin Couple Auctions Wedding Vows on eBay (the almighty money)
Rocklin Couple Auctions Wedding Vows on eBay

A Rocklin couple looking for an innovative way to pay for their honeymoon have decided to auction off their vows and other elements of their wedding.

Kristine Stone and Shaun Baland want to take their five children to Hawaii for their honeymoon, so they've put four parts of their otherwise traditional wedding ceremony on eBay hoping to raise the money.

They're offering to allow the highest bidders to write vows for the bride and groom, the best man's toast and to choose the first song they will dance to as husband and wife. Bids for each offer start at $99. Winners will get a DVD of the ceremony.

The winning bidders for the vows and the toast are limited to a total of 50 words, and are allowed to mention the name of a business only once. The only limit on the first song is that it be a slow one.

1. Why not auction off one of their kids? They'd still have four left.
Not being married didn't stop them from having a bunch of kids. Why bother to tie the knot now?

Sheesh.
