Jon Bon Jovi is proof that eternal love and rock n' roll harmony aren't mutually exclusive.
At 63, the Bon Jovi frontman took to Instagram on April 29 to commemorate his 36th wedding anniversary with wife Dorothea Hurley. His heartfelt post was a melody of roses, nostalgia, and a nod to the iconic Graceland Wedding Chapel, where their whirlwind love story began in 1989.
He penned, "36 roses for 36 magnificent years. Happy anniversary, my love..." Accompanying his message were snaps of the rose bouquet, a black-and-white wedding day memory, and a snapshot of the Graceland Wedding Chapel - a canonical landmark in the history of their romance.
The high school sweethearts, who exchanged vows in a rush during a Vegas escape while Bon Jovi was on tour, have been a power couple ever since.
In a past chat with People, Bon Jovi reminisced about the spur-of-the-moment decision to marry his long-term sweetheart. "We had a night off, and I said, 'I need a higher high - I've got an idea. Let's go to Vegas now.' And she said, 'Now?' I said, 'Now.'"
He went on to mention that their taxi driver served as the unwitting witness to their clandestine wedding ceremony. Although their sudden nuptials took the people close to them by surprise, Bon Jovi never looked back.
He shared, "It's a shame because it should have been a beautiful moment, but... people were trying to take it away, until I stood up and went, 'Wait a minute, why are we living our lives for anyone else?'"
Together, the couple has built a beautiful family of four - and a celebrated daughter-in-law, Millie Bobby Brown. Their marriage is standing the test of time, much like Bon Jovi's iconic songs. [1][2]
