Barbara & Dan in Pittsburgh, PA

Despite postponing their wedding due to an impromptu move to Europe, Barbara and Dan managed to pull off a chic affair in the heart of the city. The Bride Barbara Jones, 33, consultant The Groom Dan Michel, 31, consultant The Date July 7 For Barbara and Dan, the wedding planning process was more complicated than pleasant. After Dan proposed by moonlight on Myrtle Beach, the couple, who attended the same high school and university on the East Coast but only started dating in 1995, after running into each other on the West Coast, decided on a July wedding in Huntington Beach, CA, where they lived at the time. But nine months before the wedding, Dan found a business opportunity overseas, and within two weeks the couple had packed their bags and left for Europe. We thought it was best to postpone the wedding, says Barbara. The original wedding date came and went, as did Christmas and the Millennium.
