We met back in 1985 when working at Marquee HBO. Having similar senses of humor and completely “getting each other”, we were first friends and then began dating in 1986. We dated for about 2 years before circumstances split us apart. We stayed friends for awhile and one day, just lost touch. Although we both remained in the same area of Maryland, we didn’t know each other for more than 18 years! In 2006, tragedy brought us back together by the shear hand of fate...or destiny, if you believe. Felicia sent Paul a sympathy card after reading of his loss in The Washington Post. This began our reconnection and rekindled love that even we still find unbelievable!! On our second trip to Couples San Souci, Paul proposed. That was September 6, 2008. We couldn’t think of anywhere else to get married but Jamaica!

Our dream wedding takes place on the private island at Couples Tower Isle in Ocho Rios, Jamaica on Saturday, November 7, 2009 at sunset. We are so blessed to have our very own Rev. Jim Webb from the Takoma Park Chapel officiating our wedding. He will perform the spiritual ceremony and Rev. Garland Black will perform the legal ceremony.

A cocktail party on the island immediately follows our wedding, complete with Mento band, open bar, hors d’oeuvres and champagne. Afterwards, we will boat back to the resort and enjoy a private dinner reception in the Verandah restaurant overlooking the beach. A special menu from the resort's elegant Eight Rivers is being prepared exclusively for our guests.

This is an all inclusive trip. You need pay nothing once you leave the airport…unless you want to! For special group rates, all travel accommodations should be made through our agent, Jim Frank of JMF Travel. Call (410) 695-2765 or email Jim at: JMFTravel@comcast.net

We extend our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to all of our friends and family who will be traveling with us to Jamaica to celebrate our union. We know it is asking a lot to have you there, and with that in mind, we intend for this to be a memorable and fun trip for all! Enjoy the beach, relax, take some side trips, and discover why we are “Jamericans” and there was no where else we could be married! For those who can not travel with us, we were so pleased to see you in March at our engagement party. You exuberantly helped begin our celebratory year! We value your love and support. Your presence at our wedding is present enough. But if we're honored with a gift from you, may we respectfully request a gift towards our dream wedding and reception from this site.
