Brian and Melissa met online in March 2014. They spent a few days messaging, texting, and calling each other before deciding to go on their first date.
Brian picked Melissa up for their first date at her apartment in Fort Worth and took Melissa out to dinner at BJs Brewhouse. The original plan was to visit a fancy bowling alley after dinner, but it was booked up for the next few hours. Instead of waiting, Melissa told Brian about a hole in the wall bowling alley down the street. It was the exact opposite of fancy, but it was still a blast! They ended the evening with a kiss and proceeded to talk on the phone until the wee hours of the night.
Brian proposed to Melissa while they were seeing a double feature of The Wizard of Oz and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory at the Coyote Drive-In Theatre in Fort Worth. It didn't go exactly as Brian had planned due to some unforeseen circumstances involving the Texas heat, swarms of mosquitoes, and the rude people who were watching the movie in the next car, but ultimately, Melissa was surprised as Brian got down on one knee and asked her to be his wife! Of course she said YES! The full story is actually pretty funny and fully captures the essence of Brian & Melissa's relationship. Be sure to ask them to tell the story the next time you see them!
Brian & Melissa have decided to spend their Honeymoon in Rome, Italy! They are excited to spend their first days as husband and wife traveling together and taking in all that Rome has to offer. They both love learning about history and other cultures.
