    I was very proud to see that there was only one hater in the crowd. It is obvious they are still looking for someone to marry.

    To the lovely couple, congratulations on your years together. This is a great milestone. It is nice that you can recommit to each other after all this time. I wish the Lord’s blessings on you and many more years of bliss.

      Beanca, I found the site you mentioned about, I saw pictures of other couples, when I did’nt see your pictures, I called the phone number in St Thomas which is 3407773736,the person I spoke to, told me that it was’nt their fault for me not seeing the pictures I wanted to see as there a 1000’s of pictures on that site

    great stuff u killing me with laughter lol lol lol lol

  20. December 15, 2011

    THE MAJORITY OF BLACK PEOPLE NEVER SHOW AFFECTION IN THE PUBLIC .THIS STARTS CHANGING WITH THE NEW GENERATION; BUT I SURELY THINK THAT OUR ANCESTORS HAD MORE LOVE FOR EACH OTHER THAN WE DO NOW.NOW 80% OF LOVE AFFAIRS ARE BASED ON MATERIALS AND MONEY.
    WISH THEM THE BEST IN PEACE AND HARMONY.

    I wish the marriage continued life. I wish, though, they were closer to each other in the photo. The distance is too obvious although it may not mean a thing in actual reality. All the best.

    Well that’s sweet! Really it is, I always like it when people renew their wedding vows…..but why did they choose to do it at FOURTEEN years? Why not 15? Lol still cute though none the less.

    • POSITIVELY DOMINICAN
      December 15, 2011

      14 years might be very significant to the couple, hence renewing their vows at 14 years of marriage, instead of 15!

    • Great stuff
      December 15, 2011

      Life is short, treasure every moment. The 15 year celebration should be bigger and better.

      Im married for 2 years, have renewed my vows 24 times. Every month is an anniversary. Now take that!!! :-P :-P :lol:

  29. December 15, 2011
