About the Bride:

I was born and raised in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. I have one younger sister. I graduated from Nazareth Academy High School in 2007 and chose to attend York College where she met the groom. I am a writer, and have my Master's Degree in English with a concentration in Technical, Professional, and Creative writing. I currently works for a technology company in Newtown, PA. In my free time, I love to hike, spending time with family and friends, and shopping.

About the Groom:

I was born and raised in Northern New Jersey. I have one older brother. I graduated from West Morris Central High School in 2007 and chose to attend York College where I met my beautiful bride. I work as a technology professional for a school district in New Jersey. In my free time, I like to home brew, play computer games, and hang out with friends.

Logan and I met our freshman year at York College, while living in Manor East. Logan caught my eye during the first week of school. He was the shy guy in the dorm, preferring to stay in his room to play computer games. I was determined to get to know the quiet guy on the first floor.

Succeeding in the mission to get to know him would be no easy feat; I'd have to not only get the cute quiet guy in the dorm to talk to me, I'd have to lure him away from his games. Mission accepted.

The mission certainly was not easy. At first, I had to start with the basics. I'd try to talk to him on the way to my dorm room. Our conversations were short and to the point. If I was going to succeed in my mission, I had to be brave enough to mutter more than just one sentence.

One morning I decided I was going to be bold. I' worked up enough nerve to ask more than just "hey, how is your day going?" I asked him if he wanted to join me for breakfast, thinking the prospect of food would be enough of a bribe to get him to hangout with me. Logan felt otherwise.

"Ok, suit yourself," I thought to myself the first time he said he didn't want to grab breakfast with me. But it didn't deter me, I made it a point to ask again, only for him to nicely decline every time I asked.

My mission was starting to fail. Our short conversations of "hey how is your day going?" and breakfast rejection ritual was getting me no where. I realized I'd have to get creative if I was ever going to really get to know him.

Anyone who knows me knows that when I'm on a mission, I will do whatever it takes to complete it. So I got creative and devised a plan to prank him. It worked. Not only did it lure Logan out of his room, he agreed to go for a walk with me to escape the dorm. Guess it was a good walk as it turned into something we enjoyed doing together almost every night those first few weeks of school. Slowly, we became good friends and the rest is history.

Mission complete. I cannot wait to marry my best friend.

February 27, 2015 was the best of our life. We had planned on going down the shore to the Southern Mansion in Cape May for that weekend.

We left early in the day and made it to the shore about two hours before we could check into our hotel. It was a very cold day, probably the coldest it had been down the shore in a long time. I told him I wanted to see the ice in the waves so we stopped in Stone Harbor and decided to walk along 93rd street beach.

As we were walking, I was flirting with him, telling him he was "the best boyfriend ever" and he was "so cute". He just kept looking at me and then asked, "what is with all of these compliments?"

I, of course, got a little defensive and said, "Logan Edward, don't act like I never compliment you."

He smiled at me, got down on one knee, and said, "will you give me the ultimate compliment, then? Will you marry me?"
