We never get tired of proposal stories! Here’s another one featuring real bride, Kendra!
Most couples have a cute romantic story of how they first met. My story does not exactly scream romance (at first). The first time I met Antonio was while I was chopping onions in the kitchen of a Mexican restaurant. Yes, we met each other while working at a burrito shop. I was immediately drawn to him, although I swore we were “just friends.” I worked at the restaurant for a summer job in between semesters and was not looking for a romantic commitment. We spent many of our summer nights hanging out, talking about anything and everything, and he quickly became one of my best friends. I headed back to school at the end of the summer and Antonio enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. Those weeks while he was in basic training, he was always on my mind, and I soon realized that he was much more than my friend.What’s not to love about proposal stories?

Thanks for sharing those extra details with us, Diana! We’re so glad Kendra and Antonio have such supportive friends and family, and we’re looking forward to hearing even more about their wedding planning journey!
I remember when he came home, we picked him up from the airport and he was so excited to propose to you. He showed me the ring and couldn’t contain himself. I thought he would do it that night. Your lucky to have him and I am glad that he found such a beautiful woman to spend the rest of his life with.
