How we met!

Ciera’s Perspective

On February 20th, 2016 we both attended a wedding. When I got to the reception, I sat at my table and glanced over at the table to the right of me. I noticed Dennis and immediately thought he was very handsome. He looked at me and I just looked the other way. I really didn’t need him to see that I was staring at him lol. Anyways, as the night went on, my cousin approached me and asked my age, which I thought was kinda weird. (Dennis made him ask me that lol) I was 21 at the time, but of course i look about 17. A little while later, my cousin Shaleah and I started to walk outside to the car so that we could change into more comfortable shoes. Next thing I know, Dennis comes outside to talk to me because he thought we were leaving. By the end of the night, we exchanged numbers and the rest is history!

How We Met!

Dennis’ Perspective

February 20th 2016, I attended a friend of mines wedding. As I sat at my table minding my business, I noticed this beauty noticing me and I made sure to let her know that I noticed her noticing me lol. I wasn’t too sure if she was old enough for me to approach her (didn’t want to be a R. Kelly lol) so I sent one of my little soldiers to find out for me before I shoot my shot. He then came back and said she’s old enough to drink. (Oh word...) I saw Cece and her cousin walking out the door, and I thought they were leaving. So I had to go shoot my shot before the opportunity missed me. I walked out behind them and I said “wait up beautiful y’all leaving already?” She said ”no I’m just going to the car to change my shoes into something more comfortable”. I said “oh cool, cause I want you to save me a dance”. She said ok... When she said ok I knew that she was feeling me. So when the real dancehall tunes started playing I slowly made my way over to her for that dance that I asked her to save for me. One dance turned into two, and then I felt that there was a connection. So I asked for her digits and I got it...and the rest is history. 3 years later, and she’s about to have my last name.

The Proposal

November 10th, 2018

Dennis and I have always talked about marriage, so of course i knew this day was coming. But I did not know that it would come on this particular day. The day before was my graduation from nursing school, so my party was on this night. So Dennis is over my house and he’s helping my family and I get things ready for the party. He says he was nervous the whole day, but I honestly couldn’t tell. Fast forward to the party.... Okay, so my dad was very adament about me getting on the mic to say a speech to my guests. I really wasn’t trying to do that because, I am very shy person. There was 2 microphones, a cordless one and one with the cord attached. So of course he makes sure that I am on the mic with the cord attached to ensure that I stay in one spot, which was at the top of the stairs. So I say my little speech and at the end, I give a shoutout to Dennis and told him that I love him. (Mind you, I have no idea where he is because it was so many people there and he was hiding at the bottom of the stairs) Then I hear him on the other mic say “I love you too girl”. He starts to walk up the stairs as he’s expressing himself. He then starts to feel his pockets for something and at that very moment, I was SHOOK! I knew exactly what was about to go down. He got on one knee and here we are today!
