Wife Of The Party

April 16, 2009 was truly a magical day. It was the day we said "I Do"! On that beautiful spring day, surrounded by friends and family, we took each others hands and became one. Our hearts were filled with joy, love and light as we started our lives together as husband and wife.

Since then, our love has blossomed. Together we have tasted many fruits of life, some bitter, most sweet. We've grown our beautiful family, weathered some storms and made glowing memories as we danced in the riveting radiance of the sun.

With Gods blessings, here we are 17yrs later, joyful with our hearts overflowing with a deeper love and a brighter light, ready to say "I Still Do" as we continue on our journey of Happily Ever After. We can't wait to share this chapter of our love story with all of you. The ones who were there when our story began and those who we've been blessed to have placed in our lives along the way. August 15, 2026 our love story continues.......

Two Hearts, One Love. Forever And Always.
