Player 1: Jared Slone
Player 2: AnnaMarie Burch
I'm but a man wishing to venture the path of life with someone utterly unique. So much so, that there can be no one else. Only her, my galaxy girl.
I've always thought the stars shine bright, but they shine so much brighter when I'm with him. There is no one else I'd rather experience life with.
How it Happened:
It was a beautiful day; the sky was clear, the sun was shining, and even a majestic eagle decided to grace the day with its presence. We took a stroll by the creek near our home and found a tree unlike any other. She captured the moment with a photo. Upon seeing her glow within the sunlight, he felt it was time. He got down on one knee and said "AnnaMarie Catherine Burch", would you do me the tremendous honor of marrying me?" Without hesitation she said, "Yes, of course I'll marry you".
Thoughts:
From the Groom:
I was waiting for a beautiful night to take her out to sit beneath the stars, but the weather and my work schedule would not allow it. Eventually the moment came and I asked her a second time, as I first planned.
From the Bride:
I wasn't expecting it at that moment, so it pleasantly surprised me. I thought for sure he would do it under a star filled night sky, as we had joked about before. After I learned that he had originally planned to do that. I guess it stuck with him because he asked me a second time under one such starry night, and of course I said yes again.
