Workers at the First United Methodist Church prepare the sanctuary for the wedding of the year in Florida.
Tonight at 7, Gov. Charlie Crist and socialite Carole Rome will say their vows in front of 200 guests.
Earlier, workers made sure the place was fit for a governor.

Seems that statewide GOP boss Jim Greer found a sugar mommy.

Greer, who’s under fire for his handling of party finances, attended Saturday night’s March of Dimes shindig at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach.

He didn’t pay for the $600 tickets for himself and his wife, Lisa, according to an insider at the nonprofit.

So, who ponied up $1,200? (Read more…)

Which of these newsmen is dissing the guv?

For a guy who’s keeping the media in the dark about his wedding, Gov. Charlie Crist sure would have liked to have some high-profile TV types standing near when he marries New York socialite Carole Rome Friday in St. Petersburg.

When Gov. Charlie Crist was introduced to the 300 guests of the March of Dimes gala Saturday night at Palm Beach’s Mar-a-Lago, he locked eyes with fiancee Carole Rome and professed his love from the stage.

“Carole,” he said, “I love you. I can’t wait to be your husband in a few days.”

Some women sighed. Others swooned.

Crist and the future first lady of Florida flew into PBIA from the UF-Alabama game in Atlanta, making it right on time for the 8:30 p.m. dinner.

“Six days to go, not that I’m counting,” Crist told Page2Live as he arrived at one of his last public appearances as a single man.

Hottest ticket in Florida

Page2Live obtained a copy of the hardest-to-get ducat in the state — the engraved invitation to Gov. Charlie Crist’s wedding to New York socialite Carole Rome.

Of course, it’s just a copy because mine, I’m told, is “in the mail.”

For most Floridians, looking at this invitation is the closest they’ll be to the wedding of the “People’s Governor.” It takes place at 7 p.m. Dec. 12 at St. Petersburg’s First United Methodist Church, and then at the nearby historic Vinoy resort.
