It's Happening!

Gerald and Candice met at The Florida State University in the spring semester of 2014. They were both college of music students, she was a junior classical violinist and he was a graduate jazz drummer. They both were from separate worlds but one day their paths crossed. Candice waved and Gerald waved back, A couple minutes later their paths crossed again. This time Gerald stopped Candice and said, "I think you're really pretty, and I would love to take you out". Shocked, and intrigued Candice smiled and said, "sure"! They have been inseparable ever since.

We woke up Christmas morning, same as always. I kissed him, we made breakfast, then it was time for presents! I insisted he open his first. I had showered him with gifts and I noticed there was nothing under the tree for me. He smiled at me and said, " Baby, I ordered your present but it won't get here until after Christmas", He bent down on one knee, "So this will have to do until then". He placed the most beautiful princess cut diamond on my finger and asked me to spend the rest of my life with him, and he promised to spend the rest of his life making me happy. I said " YES"!
