In December 2005, Sharon Tendler, a 41-year-old eccentric British millionaire, married the love of her life — a dolphin named Cindy — at an Israeli resort.

Sharon Tendler met Cindy 15 years earlier when she first visited the resort. Tendler took a liking to the dolphin and made a habit of traveling to Israel two or three times a year and spending time with her underwater sweetheart.

After a years-long romance, Tendler decided to embark on the highly unusual path of tying the knot with her beloved dolphin.

On the afternoon of December 28, the thrilled bride, wearing a white dress, walked down the dock before hundreds of astounded visitors and kneeled down before her groom, who was waiting in the water.

Cindy, escorted by his fellow best-men dolphins, swam over to Tendler and she hugged him, whispered sweet nothings in his ear, and kissed him in front of the cheering crowd.

After the ceremony was sealed with some mackerels, Tendler was tossed into the water by her friends so that she could swim with her new husband.

Regrettably, Cindy died on the afternoon of June 18, 2006, and her remains were disposed in the ocean.
