StephLove12 · October 2011

Name / FI Name: Stephanie & Cody
Ages: 23 & 20
Wedding Date: Oct. 6, 2012
How you met: This may end up being a long explanation :-) Through his brother. I met FI's brother because I lived next door to him in the dorms at college. We ended up forming a close group of friends, and almost 2 years after that, FI came up to visit his brother. We were at my roommates 21st birthday in a bar (that carded everyone at the door) and I thought FI was cute. I figured he was at least legal to drink since he was in the bar, and I tried flirting... and got turned down. His brother, then decided to mention he was only 17 (cue embarrassment...). After that weekend, FI added me on facebook to appologize for rejecting me, turns out he was just trying to look 'cool' in front of his brother and his friends.
How he proposed: In Mackinaw City, at a lighthouse at sunset. Apparently he had planned to do it on this island... but I was a being a grouch because he made me ride my bike around the whole island. I was tired and grumpy, and ruined every moment he had to propose. Oops

Something else you want to share with us: Today marks the official ONE YEAR mark! And I'm SUPER nervous about the baseball game tonight.
