How it all began

The year was 2009 and Chuck and one of his co-workers had just begun their day as Safari Tour Guides at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. As they walked through the front of the park, Chuck noticed a new face among the entrance photographers. "Hey, who is the new Greek chick?" Chuck asked non-nonchalantly.Flash forward one year. Chuck and the not-Greek but Mexican chick (also known as Sofia) get stranded together after a torrential down pour while working in the kangaroo habitat. After lively and philosophical debates (N*Sync vs. Backstreet Boys, the comedic genius that is Mel Brooks, etc.) they are both told to go home early due to the horrible weather. Both soaked and hungry, they decide to drive to a nearby Chick-Fil-A for lunch.The foundation for a beautifully funny friendship is solidified. Two years go by and Sofia and Chuck remain close friends, helping each other through failed relationships, cooking mis-adventures and multiple apartment moves. It all changed one fateful night after Chuck was consoling Sofia after a nasty break up. He spent the night determined to keep Sofia's spirits up with jokes and good food. As the sun broke the horizon, Sofia turned suddenly to Chuck, placed her hands on both sides of Chuck's face and calmly said "don't freak out" as she kissed him.Luckily Chuck kept his cool.Time passes, love grows and two big,dumb dogs are brought into the mix. Chuck brings Sofia to a beach after they celebrate their second anniversary at The Columbia Restaurant in Clearwater, Florida. They walk along the shoreline watching a wedding ceremony in the distance. As Sofia walks ahead, she jokingly asks Chuck "are you sure you still want to marry me someday?" Chuck answers "well, I can't go back now...I'm already here". Sofia turns around to see Chuck on one knee holding a little black box with the diamond ring glittering against the setting sun. The story continues as Sofia and Chuck are set to be married surrounded by family and friends on December 6th, 2015 in St. Petersburg, Florida.

It's all Greek to me.
