KINGSTON, Jamaica — Starliner Seafood, Wine Bar & Grill in Plantation Cove, St Ann is redefining Valentine’s celebrations with its specially curated ‘Heart of Love’ event targeting Christian couples seeking meaningful entertainment alternatives. The February 14th gathering addresses a identified gap in the market for faith-based social gatherings during romantic holidays.
Event co-director Errol Henry explained the inspiration behind the initiative: “Our conversations with patrons revealed that Christian couples frequently desired more substantial celebrations than conventional restaurant dinners. They sought experiences aligning with their values while providing exceptional entertainment.”
The evening’s program features gospel music icon Dr. Carlene Davis-Cowan alongside her husband Tommy as master of ceremonies. The performance lineup includes Shagga Tee and Desmond ‘Desi’ Jones, the event’s co-director and leader of the Skool Band.
Tommy Cowan emphasized the spiritual dimension of the celebration: “Our nearly 45-year marriage stands as testimony to God-centered love. Carlene’s setlist will include both gospel favorites and love songs from our repertoire, including ‘Going Down To Paradise’ and ‘Everything I Own,’ all reflecting Christian values.”
The schedule includes gates opening at 7:00 PM followed by dinner service at 8:00 PM. A pre-show entertainment segment runs from 9:00-10:00 PM preceding Dr. Davis-Cowan’s headline performance.
Event sponsorship includes Visual Vibe, which has promoted the gathering through digital billboards in Ocho Rios featuring the headline artist. The venue offers two VIP ticket tiers providing comprehensive dining packages with beverage selections.
Henry encourages attendance: “This represents an unparalleled experience—one inclusive price covers gourmet dining, premium entertainment, and an atmosphere celebrating love through faith.”
Tickets remain available at the venue, Cove Electrical Plumbing and Hardware, and through online purchasing platforms.
