The Bride & Groom!

Brian and Stephanie met on Match.com. Within two days of created accounts they talked. It was Match.com and fate! That was February 2007. Six months after they met, Brian was diagnosed with a brain tumor in July 2007, and had surgery 2 weeks later in August. Stephanie says, “he will tell you that I was his angel during that time. We could have never made it through without each other. He is one of the bravest, most courageous men that I know and he fought to survive. Now, 3 years later, he is cancer free and we're beyond thrilled! Not a day goes by that we don't remember how lucky we are and how lucky he is to be alive. We want nothing more than to continue to share our lives together.”

The proposal was simple, yet romantic. Brian took Stephanie out to their favorite restaurant, got down on one knee and popped the question. The entire restaurant clapped as Stephanie said “yes!”

In Stephanie’s words “When I think about Brian, I think of my best friend. I think of a man who I will always love, support, and encourage to be the best person he can be. I never felt love like I do now, until I met Brian. I can't say why we deserve to win this wonderful opportunity any more than any other couple, but I can say that we make each other very happy and can't wait to continue to spend out lives together.
