photo by Sonya Melescue
At sunset Valentine's Day 2003, a very special event took place on St. John's
breathtaking beach at Truck Bay.
Nearly 70 couples, boasting a combined
total of over 1500 years of marriage,
joined together to renew
their wedding vows during St. John's First Annual Celebration of Love.
2004 blessed us with over
65 couples and a combined total of over 1200 years of marriage
as we jointed
together once again for our Second Annual Celebration of Love
2005 marked our 3rd celebration on a bit of an overcast Valentines Day.
The inclement weather did not stop the 63 (1456 years of marriage) couples from
joining us under the Trunk Bay pavilion for an event to remember.
For our 4th Celebration, 2006, 54 (1116 years of marriage) couples joined us for a
beautiful sunset on the beach.
In 2007 our 5th Celebration, we topped our numbers with 77 couples with 2299
years of marriage joined - making for an average of almost 30 years per couple!
2008 blessed us with a beautiful sunset and a record turnout. Over 95
couples representing over 2000 years of marriage.
2009 was perhaps the best weather we have seen with a phenomenal sunset, 71
couples, and over 1400 years of Marriage.
Join us next year,
for St. John's
Eighth Annual Celebration of Love
