John and I met at one of his prestigious Houston events. He recognized me from a picture he saw on social media and made it his mission to get to know me. From that day forward, we were truly inseparable. We shared a beautiful chemistry that neither of us thought to be possible. We rapidly fell in a beautiful, unwavering love. A year later, John decided to propose. We took a trip to Italy to celebrate his parents, Vanessa and John Carter's, 30 years of marriage. Little did I know, that wasn't the only thing we planned on celebrating. We spent a night in Rome, and the next day went to Venice, Italy. We decided to experience the romantic gondola boat ride along the Venice river. There,John got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. Behind him, on a bridge was a banner with our picture on it with the words "Will you Marry Me". On top of the bridge were several people holding posters of our picture and throwing rose petals as we drifted along the Venice river. It was the most beautiful, loving moment of my life. On April 28th, 2019 John and I will become one. Our vows will last a lifetime, and our love an eternity.
