We are renewing our vows!

Patrice and Aubrey's love story is one for the ages, beginning in the most charmingly unexpected of places - the local McDonald's during their high school years. It wasn’t the typical teenage meet-cute; there were no exchanged glances over textbooks or brushes of hands during a school project. Instead, it was a playful theft of BBQ sauce that marked the beginning of their unique journey together. Aubrey, ever so bemused by Patrice's audacious move, couldn’t help but be intrigued by her spirit. This seemingly small act sparked conversation, laughter, and an instant connection that neither could deny.⁠ ⁠ Since those early days, their love has deepened and blossomed, growing stronger with each passing year. Together, they’ve built a beautiful life, enriched by the laughter and joy of their three wonderful children. ⁠ ⁠ Excited to celebrate their love and commitment, their vow renewal will be at the picturesque Farmhouse Plainfield in 2025. The perfect backdrop for Patrice and Aubrey to continue their forever after, surrounded by family, friends, and the enduring love that started with a stolen packet of BBQ sauce. -Rachel Watson
