We met at Mount Airy COGIC. Continually crossing paths, we ended up always finding ourselves within the same company of friends. We began dating, texting, and talking on the phone. After 2 years of dating, Jerome asked Monet to marry him in a way that she never saw coming. During a 30th birthday celebration, in which Monet spent months making it a surprise, she soon found out that the real surprise was on her. She found out that the “surprise party” was actually a surprise engagement for her!
