The Best Throwback Pictures of Amy Grant and Vince Gill

From performing together as friends to showing off their newlywed glow, here are some of the sweetest photos of Amy Grant and Vince Gill

Amy Grant and Vince Gill's love story is more than 20 years in the making!

The couple, who first met in 1993 before tying the knot in 2000, has shared many moments together over the years, from hitting the stage side by side to celebrating milestones.

From a Christmas concert performance in 1994 to Gill showing his support for Grant when she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2006, take a look back at some of the sweetest memories shared between the power couple.

Friends First

Before tying the knot in 2000, Amy Grant and Vince Gill's relationship began as a friendship after they first officially met in 1993 when they were both married to other people. They performed together for the first time that year at his "Christmas with Vince Gill" holiday event in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the following year collaborated on a song for Grant's 1994 album, House of Love.

The two hit the stage together to perform on a 1994 episode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, pictured above.

Linking Up

Grant told ABC News years later that she believes sparks began to fly when the two met up to record a video for the song.

"I think that a part of me loved him instantly," Grant, pictured here with Gill in 1996, said. "I was so moved by him as a human being that I went up behind him and just hugged him as hard as I could while he was singing. I just said, 'I just needed to hug you all night.' "

Eyes for You

After their respective divorces in 1997 and 1999, the two confirmed their relationship in the fall of 1999 when Grant opened up about a moment she shared with her daughter, Millie, who asked if Gill was her boyfriend.

"I kinda took a breath and said, 'He is, honey. Yeah,' " Grant told the Tennessean at the time.

In January 2000, shortly before the couple's engagement became public, the two stepped out together for the American Music Awards in L.A.

Wedding Bells

And by March 2000, the pair was married! Gill and Grant tied the knot on March 10, 2000, south of Nashville.

Newlywed Glow

A few months later the couple announced their family was expanding as they were expecting their first child together — Grant had three children from her first marriage, while Gill had one daughter.

Sweet Embrace

Over the years the two have not been afraid to show off their love for all to see. In one of many performances together, the singers embraced on stage during the Today show Summer Concert Series in July 2002.

Sealed with a Kiss

And when it came time for the 42nd and Vine, Hollywood Hits Broadway fundraiser in New York City in 2002, the two shared a sweet smooch on the red carpet.

On Stage Chemistry

The couple took it back to their roots when they performed together for the "A Home for the Holidays" special in 2003 — 10 years after performing together for the first time at Gill's holiday concert in 1993.

Morning Show Fun

Grant held her husband's face between her hands while the two performed for yet another Today show Summer Concert Series set in 2005.

Of performing with her husband, Grant told PEOPLE in 2019: "I fall in love with him every night again hearing him play because he is maybe one of the most gifted musicians, singers I've ever heard in my life. I mean ever."

She continued, "He just makes everything better. Makes everything sound better. And he's funny. And he makes fun of himself."

Star Power

The couple's full blended family was on deck in 2006 when Grant was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Gill, of course, shared a sweet tribute to his wife during the ceremony.

"Amy's greatest quality is her ability to have a conversation with you as your friend or even a stranger and she will never waver from that conversation," he said, per AP. "This is the greatest thing I love about my wife is that when she talks to you, she's not looking over your shoulder to see if a bigger, better deal is coming through the room. She's engaged in you and you only ... If you're lucky enough to have spent time with her as a friend or travel the road with her riding a bus, or let her help you kind of cure your own problems, she is a great friend and I applaud her for that."
