Mr. & Mrs. Punch How Superman & Wonder Woman met! Kelley and Richard met through his mother. ‘We all lived in the same apartments’ Richard stated. One day Richard was asked to entertain the apartments for Thanksgiving and Kelly and her family were there in attendance. Richard did take notice her, but they were both busy at that time. Kelly and Richard began to see each other more after Richard’s mom passed. Kelly hired Richard for her daughter's graduation party. The two love birds knew they wanted to date each other, but they didn't know how it was all going to take place. Kelly say’s ‘ I was swept off my feet and I have not been the same since the first day we met. Richard say’s ‘he felt like he wanted to be the Superman that would sweep Lois Lane off her feet, however the true Superman and Wonder Woman idea which they used in their wedding came from a costume party his son invited him to in New York. It was then; the love sparks really began to fly. Kelly and Richard talked about marriage and then planned a date in the city of Love, Las Vegas. It was Kelly’s first time in New York and Richard had never experienced the heart of the strip before either. They enjoyed going on the game show called "Lovers of Losers" in Las Vegas, with host Todd Bridges from Different Strokes. It was an awesome game with prizes addition we won, crowned Lovers. The Punch’s wedding took place at The Plaza Hotel and Casino with dining following at Oscar's Steakhouse. Richard remembers his favorite part of the wedding was when the minister said ‘to his wife "....and will you take Richmond to be your husband." and she said "only if you will be my Superman." It is the adventure that continues today. In fact, they often wear the costume, as a reminder of what Superman stands for: love, positive, and bringing hope to America. They have made so many people smile by seeing them dressed up. Kids as well as adults want pictures with them. To Kelley, who often wears wonder woman, she as a sign of "one that grabs a hold of your destiny, is self empowering, and stands for truth". Kelly and Richard Punch hope that their love story brings reminders of joy and love to Couples.’ Looking at the future’ says Kelley and Richard They thank Mahogany Brides Magazine for sharing their story with the world. Contact Richmond Punch to confirm dates and times at (214) 753-3477 and also join the FACEBOOK Group Page Flavors of America for your next entertainment.
