New York Wedding Story #260

Submitted by Vivian & Victor, Brooklyn, NY
Engaged May 09, 2006
Wedding On May 24, 2009

Victor and I met at Rite Aid Pharmacy during the time I was in school and working part-time. We met on January 26, 2006. He went to pick up a prescription for his mom at the pharmacy and I was helping him. I didn't know this guy was staring at me for a long time and the next thing he told me was "I want to ask you on a date" I said "No, I don't know you". He told me "So what?We can get to know each other" I thought he was crazy....I denied to go on a date with him three times and I guess the fourth time I agreed. Since then, we've been together..........

Victor proposed to me on May 9, 2006 at my college graduation's party in front of our friends & families (there were so many families: my grandparents that are 90 year old that came all the way from Canada for my college graduation). I was opening all my gift from everyone until his gift was next...I was so excited...thinking that I will get like a necklace, bracelet or maybe a Coach bag (I love Coach!)....The next thing I know was I saw a pink egg in my hand..I am thinking "What am I going to do with an egg?"....I turn around and he was on his knee.........and he asked me to marry him. I said "Yes!" and now we are planning our wedding and can't wait to share the rest of our lives together....

I am so happy that he proposed to me on May 9, 2006.......that day has so much meaning to me.....Not only I graduated from LIU but also my engagement date and the month that I will be having my wedding on.
