HOW WE MET

We met in Andrea’s neighborhood; morning - how embarrassing! The on her block to be exact. next day we met up and we’ve spent We had often seen each other in almost every evening together passing. Andrea’s best friend told since then. But not because it was my uncle that she thought I was love at first sight; it was hardly cute. A few days later, I asked that!

After six months of dating, we decided that being in a relationship was what we both wanted. I like to fly under the radar while Andrea prefers to fly over, under and around it. This was definitely a my uncl e to help me exchange We formed a great companionship case of when opposites attract. numbers. That same night, Andrea and an amazing support system butt-dialed me at 2 o’clock in the for one another.

Her Side: I flew to Barbados on December 6, 2015 to attend Munaluchi Bride’s Coterie Retreat, a bridal industry conference. Peter joined me on the trip for a fun getaway. On the last night during the Awards Gala, I was on the dance floor trying to do the Wobble when photographer Joshua Dwain danced with me.

The DJ then asked everyone else to clear the dance floor.

Joshua told me to turn around and there was Peter with spotlights and eyes all on him. I was so confused because Peter doesn’t talk and he most certainly doesn’t stand up in a room full of people with a microphone in-hand.

His Side:

SHE SAID YES! the proposal

I had been planning the proposal for months. The ring was in my hiding place since July. No one knew I was going to propose. I told a few select people once we arrived in Barbados and called home to let them know what was about to happen.

This was completely out of character for me, but I figured I would only have to do this once. I was sure she’d be expecting me to propose in private and in the most chill way possible.
