The Bride and Groom met in their eighth grade science class. They had each other for three classes and did not talk until the middle of the year, the groom was shy. Once they got to talking they couldn't stop, they were inseparable. They both didn't think much of it, you know, puppy love. Who would have thought that the two kids who started dating in eighth grade would become husband and wife 7 years later.
Before leaving for deployment the Groom came home for a couple of weeks. It was the last weekend the couple would spend with each other for the next six months so they decided to have fun and not worry about a thing. Little did the Bride know, the Groom had something big in mind. They went to a very fancy restaurant, which is not the norm for them. After dinner the Groom got her to stand by asking the waiter to take a picture of them. As Mariksa stood up and turned around to look at Juan, he was going down on one knee asking her to marry him.
