BEFORE THE WEDDING

Occupations: Jeremy is a network engineer and I am a secretary in a doctor's office

How the couple met: We met in at university when one semester we mysteriously had three classes together. I was late and the teacher informed Jeremy that he would be catching me up on what I missed. We became great friends and eventually he convinced me to go out with him. It was all over from then on.

How he proposed: The morning after we moved into our new house he told me he wanted to share his new house with me officially.

Bridal shower/Bachelorette party: We went for a 2 day camping extravaganza in the rain in the mountains. 7 girls vs 1 keg. the girls won. :)
