It all started 7 years ago two strangers from two different culture, two different location decided to take a leap of faith to find love on an online dating site against all odds. As we made our interest known we knew that due to the distance between us, there was no chance of us ever being together so we settled for a friendship instead. As months and years past our friendship grew and so did our connection so we decided to meet. We met in Las Vegas for the first time and something sparked between us. We never knew this would ever be possible especially for us. So now that our stars are aligned, here we are about to walk down the aisle to start journey together as husband and wife. Here's to endless possibilities!
I had been brainstorming on the best time and place to propose and wanting it to be just right. I finally got out of my head and prayed about it. It was after Tajhay's birthday party and I felt moved by the spirit to just do it then, spontaneously. Yanique had commented several times about the guitar in the living room and if I played. I would pass it off and just say, "Oh, I know a few chords", and leave it at that. I went and grabbed my guitar, and sang a song I had practiced but never played for anyone, "Perhaps Love" by John Denver. So, I began to play and sing to her surprised look. A few verses into the song and she started to tear up. I finished the song, feeling emotional, set down the guitar, got down on one knee, and presented a ring. Someone was chopping onions in that room, as I asked, " Would you be my Mrs. G?" And she managed to utter a soft, YES.
