From Amy- The day Neil and I met felt like fate intervening. It was just one day after my father's funeral service, and I found myself in need of an escape. So, I decided to return to my beloved Bermuda with a close friend, hoping to find some comfort. As it turned out, Neil happened to be back on his island that same week visiting friends and family. One evening, we ended up at one of my favorite places, The 1609. We settled in at the bar for dinner, and before long, I noticed Neil sitting next to us. He kept stealing glances in my direction but didn’t say anything at first, so I got the the courage to say hello. The moment I spoke to him, he turned to fully face us, and from there, his passion for the island poured out as he took us on an impromptu tour around Bermuda for the week. After I returned home, our connection deepened. Neil started texting me frequently, calling, and even surprised me with flowers! He invited me to Miami, offering an exciting opportunity to join him on his boat. He needed to move it from Florida to the Bahamas and wanted me by his side for the journey. He promised me it would be an unforgettable weekend and assured me I wouldn’t regret accepting his invite. True to his word, Neil made every moment special—from the moment he picked me up, he held my hand and never let go. Since then, it’s been the greatest adventure of my life! I feel immensely grateful that I chose to visit my favorite place, where we were brought together. From Neil- Fate has a funny way of bringing people together. I was supposed to be in St. Lucia, enjoying the Caribbean sun, but something pulled me home to Bermuda instead. Looking back now, I can only believe that the universe had other plans. It all started at 1609, a waterfront restaurant perched above Hamilton Harbor, where the ocean breeze carries the scent of salt and Dark n Stormies. I wasn’t expecting anything out of the ordinary that evening, but then there she was. Amy made the first move, from the moment we met, conversation flowed effortlessly, as if we had known each other in another lifetime. One drink turned into hanging out on the dock until 2am. One night turned into an entire week. We explored the island, laughed under the Bermy sun, and discovered a connection that felt larger than life. But as all good things do, the week had to come to an end. Amy had to go home, and I had to return to work on my boat. I couldn’t shake the feeling that this wasn’t where our story was meant to end. So I did what any sane man who had just met someone extraordinary would do—I convinced her to fly to Miami and embark on an adventure with me. Aboard the yacht I captain, we sailed from Miami to the Bahamas. That trip was the beginning of a life filled with adventure, spontaneity, and love. Since then, our story has taken us across the world, from hidden coves in the Mediterranean to cheering on the Eagles at our new home in West Palm Beach. Each new destination is a new chapter. Looking back, I realize that missing St. Lucia was never a detour, it was the path that led me to Amy!

We are so thankful for every single one of you and we are grateful that you will travel to be with us for this special day! We know it’s not easy but we promise it will be incredible, beautiful and fun! We can’t wait to share our day with the people we love so much!
