We met in May, thanks to Troy's brother Rod who works with Juli. From the first date, which was at Bonefish Grill, we had a special connection and we hit it off great. We spent all summer together and along with the kids we had a great time.

The next time we went to Bonefish Grill Troy proposed. Actually we went to Bonefish, ate dinner and left to go to a party. After the party Troy said, "Lets go back to Bonefish" so we did and had dessert and he presented the ring. We were even at the same table that we had eaten at on our first date. It was an outside table and the evening was beautiful and warm. Kinda funny that it took Troy a second visit that night to propose! He was so nervous, it was cute.

We had already been planning our cruise in November so we decided to make that our Honeymoon. We have a nice balcony room and some special excursions planned, we will have a blast! We will be in Miami for a few days before the cruise so you can bet we will be hitting the beach.

Our first date was on the 17th of the month, our engagement was on the 17th, we picked out our wedding bands on the 17th, so we decided that we should get married on the 17th, too!

The private ceremony will be held on October 17th.

We are having a reception at my house, yes not much room and no live band, but you can stop by and have a piece of cake with us! Hope to see you there!
