Edmond & Tamica
Dear Tamica,
Never did I imagine a vacation would change my life. Caving into the daily pleas of my friend, I agreed to attend the 2007 Essence Music Festival. Sitting on a curb getting some air, I looked up into your beautiful eyes. We ended up walking away hand in hand, and we’ve shared that connection ever since. In you I’ve found the perfect companion. Your charisma and smile light up any room and melt away my stubbornness. After a year of daily phone calls and biweekly visits, you relocated from Atlanta to be near me. I want you to know that your sacrifice is not in vain. You have brought warmth and purpose into my life. You are the love of my life, and I hope you will do me the honor of becoming my wife. Will you marry me?
Sean & Ashley
Dear Ashley,
It was your smile that first captivated me when we met in 2006 at an event for your sorority. We kept in touch and remained friends. Though you brushed off my initial romantic gestures, you finally realized the depth of my feelings for you. Being with you has taught me to be selfless and understanding in both friendship and love. I credit you with strengthening my relationship with God. I will go to the ends of the earth for you, even if it’s to get Bruster’s cheesecake ice cream. As a firefighter, I put my life on the line to help others. Now, if you’ll be my bride, I’ll dedicate my life to being your soul mate. Will you marry me?
Ebiakpo & DeKeisha
Dear DeKeisha,
I was instantly attracted to you during a chance meeting on a ski trip to Boston. But I could’ve kicked myself for not getting your number immediately. As fate would have it, we ran into each other a month later in New York. I remember telling my cousin, “I’m going to marry this woman.” You were so warm and giving. In 2007, when you were diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, I was heartbroken. The disease only made me realize that I never want to leave your side. You once asked me if I could meet anyone, who would it be. The answer is, and always will be, our children. I can’t wait until we start our family. Will you marry me?
Anthony & Kristan
Dear Kirstan,
After I spotted you in the orange juice section of a grocery store, I was a changed man. Remember Christmas night of 2006? We had only known each other for a week, but we stayed up until five o’clock in the morning just laughing and talking. Your generosity inspires me. When you told me that you were raising your 3-year-old cousin Jasmine, I really knew you were special. Jasmine even looks like she could be our biological daughter! And since we started dating, I am more focused and responsible. No longer do I care about living the bachelor life. I just want to take care of you and Jasmine. Pee Wee, you’re everything a man could want. Will you marry me?
Rashad & Andrea
Dear Andrea,
I feel like the luckiest guy in the world to have found true love on a blind date. From that day on, we haven’t been able to get enough of each other. You were the first person I talked to in the morning, and the last person I talked to at night. Even though our love was long distance, we still cared for each other as if we were right next door. You were there for me when my dad passed away in 2007, and that’s when I realized I wanted to be there for you, forever. Since moving to Houston to be with you last year, I’ve never looked back. Until the end of my days, I vow to give you undying love. Will you marry me?
