My fiancé and I have know of each other for ten years, but we only met for the first time in November. His mom owned the local makeup store in town. I went to her for every occasion I had, school dances in high school and college, weddings, photo shots an even dates. She knew that I never had made great choices in the men I dated and her some was the same when it came to the ladies. Well during 2008 I was in 5 weddings and had many bridal/baby showers going on that I was a part of. So I spent lots of Saturday mornings/afternoon with my Fiancé mom. While there he always seemed to call when a client walked into the studio. She would then hand me the phone and him and I would make small talk till she was finished. In October I went to a Halloween party that my fiancé mom did my make up for. I sent her a picture of me and the outfit (I was cupid) and she told me I should send it to him as well, so I did. He must have liked what he saw because he sent me an up-date photo of him and man is he good looking. Come to find out he was going to be in California that weekend for his best friends wedding. So we made plans to met on his was back to Nevada. We set up our lunch date and when we met it was like we had known each other for so long. We ended up at lunch for over two hours talking, getting to know each other and planning our next date. We had decided that I was to come out to Las Vegas Nevada the next weekend. We spent the weekend to get and on my way home I called my mom and told her I met my Price Charming and that some day I would marry him. For the next 3 months Paul would make the journey to California all most every weekend and I would fly to Vegas once a month. We saw each other every weekend no exception. In January Paul and I had decided to go to the beach for some fun in the sun. We went to a great restaurant, did some shopping and them decided to walk on the pier. While on the pier we walked over to this look out and I thought we would enjoy the view together. Little did I know what was coming next. Paul dropped down on one knee and gave me the most beautiful 3 ½ caret ring I have ever seen. But I did not say yes at first. I was in shock when he asked me to marry him. When he opened the ring box and asked those words “WILL YOU MARRY ME” I first said “is that ring real” and he answered “YES” then I asked “is it mine” he then said ‘YES”. As I was crying he was staring at me for the Yes and of course I told him”YES OF COURSE”. I moved to Las Vegas 2 months later and we have been planning our new life as one every since.

Paul and I have set a wedding date of August 21st, 2010. We knew we wanted a beach wedding since we loved it some much. After lots of venue hunting we found the perfect venue. We are getting married on a yacht in the Newport Harbor. We are going through Electra Cruises and they have been amazing to work with. This venue gives us everything we were looking for and more. We stepped it up a notch and instead of getting married at the beach we are getting on the ocean water and sunset. The boat is called the eternity and hold all 200 of our guest comfortable. We have set a boat departure time of 6pm. I have a total of 6 bride maids and he has 5 groom men. Our wedding colors are going to be different color shades of pink and dark purple.
