Cue the ocean breeze… the sound of waves gently touching the shore… the beauty of love that has stood the test of time. Thirty years ago, GOD began writing a beautiful love story between Patrick and me — a story filled with faith, love, growth, laughter, lessons, and unwavering grace. Through every mountain high and valley low, every joyful moment and challenging season, God has faithfully carried us, covered us, and kept us safely in His loving arms. Now, as we prepare to celebrate our 30th Wedding Anniversary, our hearts are overflowing with gratitude. What better way to honor this milestone than aboard a cruise ship — our favorite way to travel — surrounded by the people we love? We desired an intimate and meaningful celebration with family and cherished friends, and we intentionally chose you to be part of this unforgettable moment. Your love, prayers, support, and presence in our lives means more than words can express. As we set sail into this beautiful new chapter and renew the vows that have sustained us for three blessed decades, we are reminded of God’s faithfulness and the power of covenant love. Our marriage has endured because God has always been the foundation of our love story. He has been our anchor, our strength, and the center of our home. “I have found the one whom my soul loves.” — Song of Solomon 3:4 Today, we stand hand in hand — still choosing one another, still growing together, still covered by grace. Thank you for joining us as we celebrate love, legacy, commitment, and the goodness of God. Your presence makes this moment even more special as we renew our vows and continue this incredible journey together. And as the curtains open on this next chapter of our story, we can say with grateful hearts: To God be the glory for our story. “My beloved is mine and I am his.” — Song of Solomon 2:16. With Love, Antwanette & Patrick

We met through a mutual friend….we’ll tell you the rest later…
