Keeping in line with the modern trend of democratizing tradition, two Florida newlyweds decided on whose surname the other would take through the simple flip of a coin; lo and behold, the bride won the day.

“Jeff Conley and Darcy Ward married at Wakulla Springs earlier this month, but when it came time to announce the pair’s official married last name, the couple let a coin toss decide their future,” reports Fox News. “At the altar, Conley and Ward flipped a coin engraved with each of their surnames. The coin landed on ‘Ward,’ officially deciding that the two would be known as Mr. Jeff Ward and Mrs. Darcy Ward henceforth.”
