Ok long story....I’m literally marrying my best friend. A college buddy of mine and I got very close. I was introduced to her cousin so we became a crew. Me, college buddy, her boyfriend/now husband and my FH became inseparable. So FH and I were friends...BEST friends for about 6 years before one day he tells me, hey I’m falling for you. Shock and fear does not describe the way I felt. He pursued, I ran. After my female best friend (his cousin) got married of course the time we all spent together began to dwindle. FH and I were on our own. He surprised me with 100 roses for my birthday. I took him out for his birthday...the rest is history 😀. He proposed to me at our favorite restaurant with all my friends and family there. He had a fake ring and asked me if I would accept him through anything I said yes. Later on that night he surprised me with my real ring. It’s gorgeousssss. One of the best nights of my life!!

Happily married 🎉
