ME: Rosaria
HE: Anthony
ME: Sr. Disability Coord.
HE: Phys Ed teacher,coach

MET: (pretty funny) We met through a mutual friend who couldnt wait for us to meet. The night we finally met was her b-day party at Jet-east in the Hamptons. Well, as soon as she noticed Anthony giving me attenion she flipped out and did her best to keep him and I away from each other. We managed to swap numbers so the next day we spoke and made plans to meet at the beach..We were inseperatable after that day....Unfortunatly, the 'friend' had a problem with Anthony and I seeing each other and we havent spoken to her since... To this day, we both have no idea why she reacted the way she did,,especially since SHE told us about each other and WANTED to introduce us to each other.
RING: pix below

PROPOSAL: I will try to keep this short....Anthony was turning 30, so his parents asked me to help them plan his surprise 30th party at a lounge called Merlot. So for 5 months his mother and I planned this great party...The day of the party finally came, we walked in and he I truly believed he was surprised....so I was excited that we actually fooled him!!!! WELL,,,,little did I know about 2 hours later Anthony got on the microphone and started to thank his parents for the party and then he began to thank me and told me that he loved me and that he had a little secret to tell me...He said that he knew about the party all along and that him and his parents were working together to surprise me!!!!! Anthony told me that I basically planned my own SUrprise Party!!! He then got on his knee and proposed!!! NOT ONE GUEST BESIDES his parents and mine knew about this so it was a surprise for everyone!!!!!!!

He is truly the LOVE of my Life!!!!!!!
