Still together, 10 years after arranged mall marriage

First comes love, then comes marriage — so goes the children’s song. But David and Elizabeth Weinlick have sung a much different tune for a decade now.

The Minneapolis couple were introduced and married at the Mall of America after David publicly recruited a bride and relied on his friends to choose from the candidates.

Today, the Weinlicks — all five of them, counting their three kids — are celebrating David and Elizabeth’s 10th anniversary, commemorating a successful union founded on unfamiliarity.

It all started with a random comment from David in 1994 that somehow snowballed into a self-fulfilling prophecy. While a senior at college, he told friends he would get married on June 13, 1998.

That foretelling hit a bit of a stumbling block in the spring of 1997, when David broke up with his girlfriend.

With the date of destiny drawing closer, David’s friend, Steve Fletcher, suggested he run a campaign to seek a qualified bride. Leaflets were distributed. A commercial was made. A Web site was established. And the press reported on and publicized it all, resulting in more than 300 applications from prospective Mrs. Weinlicks.

Nashville could have two bible-theme parks

NASHVILLE, June 16 (UPI) — Nashville could have two Bible theme parks thanks to a developing rivalry in Middle Tennessee.  

The competition comes as The Holy Land Experience plans an expansion from its Orlando base to Hendersonville headquarters of Trinity Music City — even as Bible Park USA, which has been attempting to buy land outside Murfreesboro continues its efforts to find a site. But some observers have questioned whether there is sufficient interest to support any new amusement park, the Nashville Tennessean reported Monday.

“This is not a good time to be opening theme parks,” said Dennis Spiegel, president of International Theme Park Services Inc., an industry consulting firm. “And history has shown us that Bible theme parks just haven’t done well.”

In addition, Bible Park USA has run into other problems this spring in the face of resistance from Murfreesboro residents who didn’t want a $180 million, 200-acre theme park in their neighborhood. The developers are now looking to other communities, including Lebanon, Tenn.

“There’s an old Jewish saying: ‘When it rains on the market, everyone gets wet,'” said Bible Park USA chief executive Ronen Paldi, explaining the developers’ continued faith in moving forward.
