I am so excited to be this weeks bride of the week!! Thank you so much Eunice!!

Now lets get started...

When did you realize FH was the one?
Do you think he realized it at the same time and What makes him the one?


For me I can honestly say the first time I saw him he was in dress blues I knew there was something there, it just felt differnt.
As time went on and our 'friendship' (yes literally) grew I saw he had an amazing amount of respect for himself and me too. I wasnt just a chick to him, I was a women, mother, student, social worker... He saw the whole me.
We dated for 8 months before we were offically anything other then friends....
But it wasnt until 3/9/10 when he handed me a small wallet that held his PBA card and a mini shield that I was his 'official' girlfriend and we began to include my daughter in our relationship. I knew that day he was my forever. He was thoughtful and protective of her and didnt play games with my heart or head. He was what I had fought so hard to find.
He on the other hand didnt verbally tell me he loved me until Sept of 2010 and he used to kid around w me and tell me our relationship was 60% me liking him and 40% him liking me. He came around when he had left on a vacation for 15 days without me and returned with my pandora charm that says I Love You.
I am still not sure how I ended up so lucky.

So let here it ladies... did he fall first... or you... ???

You're a great person; you deserve each other. =) I remember when Justin gave me a pba card and mini shield. It's like the cop version of a promise ring. lol

I knew my FH was the one actually after our first kiss...it felt so different and I just knew but we were so young that I wasnt sure if he felt the same, a few months later, i told him i loved him one drunk college night but I knew what I was saying LOL...he said thank you in response and made me so sad. So the next day he asked me if I remembered what I said the night before and I said of course I said I love you and he said well now that I know you knew what you were saying I love you too so romantic lol. Also, my best friend knew really early on too and I knew if she knew after having a crush on him it was definitely obvious haha

Joe and I worked together. I can say that when I'm at work in a beoch. I work on huge amounts of money and time sensitive trades. Ok so when I first got introduced to him I had a boyfriend. And I was mean. After the First IPHone came out I asked him omg let me see your phone. ( now I was being cute lol) my boyfriend at the time I just broke up with. He comes in my room we talking exchange numbers We texted all the time. But it didnt last lol. Because I got bak together with my ex for like another 2 months. After the second breakup I asked his co worker like u think this would work out I totally screwed him the first time and stopped talking to him completely. I felt like an jerk lol. Well we finally made plans to meet at Minnesotas and we have been together ever since. I was the one that said I think I'm falling in love with you first. We had our ups and down. But after 4 months of dating he said after my brother gets out of the apt your moving in. So he made the first long term move. It took Alot I. Suspense about getting engaged. He blew me away and I love him even more than words can say!! And he loves me too. He let me book a dj and photographer 10 days after we were engaged and yesterday when I said omg I'm calling up my dj Bc I want the Led booth and in white he was like ok how much lol. He just wants me to have the fairytale wedding and I know he will do pretty much anything. Well except PhotoBooth lol.


Kat- great first question and your story is amazing. You gave me chills

Girls truly amazing stories ever!!!!
And Court is right. If it weren't for them we wouldn't know each other!!!

I am always a day late on these things, sorry!

I met FH in the beginning of 2008 and we started dating but it wasn’t really serious until like 2010 and then we moved in together. Well, I realized FH was the one when even though I was going through a really rough time at one point he was there to always save the day. He would bring me back up, make me smile and just always stuck around. He never let me just be sad or unhappy for long. I knew that if he could be there through my roughest that he was a keeper. And the way he treated my son was amazing. I mean I don’t even think my son doesn’t remember him in his life because he met him when he was 2. FH always calls him his son and that’s really awesome that a man would step up and take that role when these days a real father doesn’t do that!

I never laughed, smiled and was just happy every day with anyone else. We really laugh all night long. I mean I do really, really ridiculous silly things and he laughs so hard. Some guys would probably be like ***? but no, he comes back with something even more ridiculous than me. I watch TWOTY video and everytime I see us in it we are laughing!

The first time he said I love you was in a pool at our yearly Jamaica trip. We go on holiday with our friends from England, Canada and Florida every year to Jamaica. So we were hanging out in the pool having drinks and he dips me back and looks in my eyes and says I love you. And trust me…from a guy like FH those words do not just come out easily so I knew he meant it and that was that. I knew I had him from there. Life is truly an amazing journey and I am so grateful that I get to spend the rest of mine with someone so wonderful. I can’t wait to get married and just make our family bigger in the years to come!!

After my first date with FH (which was nothing special, dinner and pool) my mom asked how it went. I said fine and talked about the night. She smiled and said 'I think your going to marry him' She said my tone and all was just 'different'. I rolled my eyes and ignored her...

But yea, the relationship was just different than anything I had been in. It was always comfortable and never had those awkward moments. I'm not really sure at what moment I 'knew' but I think I knew from the start that he was going to change me forever.

when we met with our officiant she asked a similar question and I said that it's not just about marrying someone you could live with, but I'm marrying the person that I can't live without

The first time I knew FH was the one was the night he came out to a club for my sister's birthday while we were dating. We all left the club through the back exit and there was a huge puddle. I was being prissy and said 'how am I going to get through this with my heels on?' Before I knew it, he swooped me up and carried me over the puddle. Corny, I know, but I was impressed with him. He walked my sister, friends, and I to the car and asked me to call him when I got home to let him know I was safe and sound. FH says he knew I was the one when we met. =) Justin is the one because life makes sense with him. He is my best friend and is always there when I need him. He has my back no matter what. He is also so sweet and generous with his nieces - I know he'll make a great father.

haha i didn't make it up! take it!

When we met if someone would have told me 6 years later you would be marrying him I would have laughed in their face.

We met at a club and I always said that I would never date someone that I met at a club. But today I am so happy and I cannot imagine my life with another man.

We did not start hanging out until a few months after we met because I would always blow him off and tell him I'm working full time and going to school full time I don't have time to hang out with him. But once I really got to know him I realized he could be the one and I started to fall for him but I still wasn't sure. I really knew he was the one about 2 years into our relationship (I know it seems like a long time but I've been hurt a few times and I wanted to be sure). He liked me first but I loved him first. I wanted to say 'I love you' early on but I was afraid he would not say it back. On Valentine's Day 2009 I verbally told him that I love him and he said it back.
