INTRODUCTION: Roger & Diana's 25th Anniversary Renewal Celebration!

 OK, we’re gettin’ close! Recent blog articles have covered various details of this Hawaiian Cruise from sign-ups to shore excursions; pre-cruise brunch plans to passports & ID’s...besides plans to go on a fun filled vacation getaway. The main reason why this cruise is happening is because Roger said to Diana, “Let’s get married again for our 25th anniversary” and so here we are on this Hawaiian Cruise with fun friends and family. So again welcome aboard and hang in there as we use this article to spotlight our 25th Anniversary Celebration and those attendees.

It might be important to open with the simple fact that this is our “FINAL” 25th Anniversary Renewal Celebration. We are truly grateful that each of you have chosen to join us and share in this final chapter of this Davis event.  For some of you this may be a first and a new Davis experience, such as Andre, Dee Dee, Holly, Connie & Irene to mention a few. For others, it was important to just show up that being the case for Fumi and Jan. Jan stop kicking yourself for missing the 10th Renewal...you’ve made the final one to help close this chapter and most importantly to share it with your guy Jim!  For others they have been there in the beginning such as Karen, Buzz, Rocky, Peggy, Fumi & Reagan  and even Sara & Stella who may be swayed with a cocktail or three to share Diana’s Bachelorette Party Stories in Vegas as well as their 5th Renewal with Elvis!  And then there is the “dynamic duo” Alex & Ted, the fun-loving, let’s make it happen couple, awaiting direction, offering support, expertise & travel wisdom. To this mix we have past Davis group cruisers & fun-loving friends Sean, Andrea, Pat, JoMary, Michael, Angie, Lien, Ross & Gary, Wendy, Norm & Bob & Lee, Carole & Elliott  who can’t get enough of the Davis’ or is it that they simply love to have fun! Whatever the reason we are honored and thrilled to have you help us celebrate. 

Our renewal ceremony and celebration will be on the afternoon of Monday, October 12th, the SEA DAY after the port of call of Lahaina, Maui. The attire will be Aloha Dress. Which means, hawaiian shirts for the men and hawaiian sundress for the ladies. Yes, we even welcome matching outfits for those love birds. More details will be forthcoming, once we board the Ruby Princess. 

In the meantime allow us to introduce our renewal party members....Next to Diana, will be her Matron of Honor KAREN VAUGHN and her Brides Maids PEGGY ALBY  & STELLA HACKER. These three gals standing with her on this special day have weathered the years with her. These gal pals of Diana’s have stood by her since she was just a childhood kid, her dating & numerous married and re-maui’d days with Roger as well as her professional career days and yes even through retirement as well. These gals have always stood by her and Diana is thrilled that her dearest and closest gal pals will be here to celebrate this final celebration chapter.

Next to Roger will be his Best Man BUZZ VAUGHN, then his Groomsmen REAGAN MIYASAKI & GARY HEARD. Roger and Buzz go way back with Karen and Diana having shared a lot of special couples times together. Reagan of course is Roger’s LOL Bro-Man and Gary is Roger's Sonoma Pal or is it more Martini Time Buddy...anyway, Roger couldn't imagine a celebration without Gary, after all who drinks Bombay Sapphire Gin Martini with him anyway? Gary will....AND so here stands Roger’s gang! 

We also asked ALEX KUNCIO to be our Officiant (yes she is multi-talented) and assisting her will be ANDRE MATHIEU (Diana's childhood school mate). Both of these creative people will be working together to come up with a renewal ceremony for us. 

Lastly, we have ROCKY ALBY, NORM KILGORE and SEAN HAGERTY as our our cruise/renewal photographers. Of course we welcome any photos that anyone can candidly take as we would ultimately love to create a memorable photo album of our entire cruise. But these dear friends have extended their friendship as well as their skills. So be sure you smile to the camera! 

Now save this date, Monday, October 12th, afternoon... .we are so excited to have you be a part of our 25th Anniversary Finale Renewal Celebration...let the celebration begin! 
Mahalo Nui Loa, 
♥ Diana & Roger

  1. Aww! That's so sweet of you to share about your memorable day. Wishing for many more to come. Vow renewal party of my uncle and aunt was also a super cool dinner at Los Angeles event venues recently. Mexican dishes and white sauce pasta as yum. Liked the cocktails and red wine ordered from reputed places.
