Westpine Middle School in gym class (2003)
Our First Date
We had dinner at the Broadwalk restaurant on Hollywood Beach along with the bride to be’s 2-year-old son. The next morning, they spent the day at Morikami.
Our Engagement Story
What was disguised as a girls staycation at the Hilton resort on Fort Lauderdale beach turned into a proposal. Gerald and Kolleen’s best friend and maid of honor, Sharleen planned the whole surprise. Kolleen walked into a room with a candlelit path with scattered rose petals that led her to the couch where the tv started playing a video Gerald made with our most important friends and family all holding signs that read “SAY YES”. At the end of the video, Gerald walked in and got down on one knee and asked Kolleen to marry him. Of course, she said yes, and the rest was history!
