My wife and I are honored that you are interested in having your wedding at my home place. Marriage is the most wonderful decision you can make. It honors God, your family, your future and America. It validates your genuine love for one another and sets the stage for a stable and loving home life.

I grew up in this house. My parents were married for 65 years and Genie and I have been married for 54 years. So, you can see that we have relied upon the Christian vows that we made to bless our home. We want it to be a blessing to you.

We are committed to the home and family as set forth in the Bible. We believe that God has ordained and created marriage to exist between one man and one woman. The Holy Scriptures set forth specific home and family values, which include the distinct roles of husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, and children. It is our firm conviction that we uphold the dignity of each individual as we embrace the unchanging and long standing principles of scriptural truth.

If you agree with our stand for traditional marriage, here are things you can do:

Consider us for you or your family or friend’s wedding place;

Buy a gift certificate for a stay with us for yourself or give to someone who needs a getaway – maybe your parents, close friends or your pastor and staff;

Patronize all the Christian business owners who are willing to stand for what we believe – without your patronage most cannot survive the attack on our Christian faith;

And last but not least, pray for us to be able to stand against the assault on traditional marriage and then share our prayer request with your church family. Hopefully this will become your mission as well as ours.
