Here's the announcement I wrote for my parents' 50th wedding anniversary:

Ernest and Pat Lanicek will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary with a private party for family & friends. Ernest and Pat met on a double-date (not with each other) at the defunct Keller’s Drive-in on Harry Hines Blvd, while Ernest was home on leave from the US Navy and Pat was in bobby socks and a ponytail. It was love at first sight. After a whirlwind romance, Ernest married the former Patricia Marie Harris at Saint Monica’s Catholic Church in Dallas, TX on August 16, 1958. They are the parents of Rick, husband of Julie, and Dan, husband of Kim. They have two grandchildren, Brendan and Sarah.
