We met as bridesmaid and groomsman at our friends Bill and Melissa's wedding. We knew pretty quickly after that we were made for each other. 4 years, a move from Florida to Buffalo, a house, 1 cat and 2 dogs later, we're finally tying the knot ourselves! Ben proposed on Christmas Eve. We had been out to dinner with my parents, visiting them in Florida for the holiday. My mom was in on it, pulling my attention away so Ben could get the ring out and get down on one knee without me seeing. I was so surprised I almost didn't realize what was happening! I, of course, said yes!
