Nearly Wed Game

Congratulations to Sareh Shoraka and Zach Dyer, winners of Jacksonville Magazine's 2010 Great Wedding Giveaway. The couple won the final stage of the $35,000 competition by recording the highest score in the "Nearly Wed Game," a live game show we hosted December 3 at Serenata Beach Club.
For much of the game, the scores were neck-and-neck. But, in the end, Sareh and Zach edged out the others competitors. In the spirit of the classic TV game show "The Newlywed Game," the questions posed by our emcee extraordinaire Cole Pepper were as follows:
