Congrats to Verrain & True Pisces!

Another couple brought together by the SDMB ties the knot!

Verrain has been a true and exceptional friend to me over the last couple of years, a real knight in shining armor type, and deserves all the happiness the world can offer him. I have met True Pisces and talked to her often and she is one of the sweetest and most compassionante people you could ever hope to meet. She's also something of a wild woman. Go Rich.

In the words of my mother's people:

May God go with you and bless you,
May you see your children's children,
May you be poor in misfortune and rich in blessings,
May you know nothing but happiness from this day forward.

All my love to you both!

Just so there is no misunderstanding, since I realize that was rather vague, they got engaged this weekend. He proposed in the jewlery store.

True Pisces and Verrain, both of you have been my friend for over a year now. I always knew you two belonged together.


Remember that time we talked on the phone, thanks to Crunchy Frog and his abuse of work assets? I remember hearing someone mention finding his 'happy place'. Guess you've found it.



Much love to both of y'all.

Thank you all! And Especially Arden, for starting this wonderful thread.

We were actually BOTH rather surprised by this. We were out, looking at rings and found the exact one that I wanted. When Verrain saw it on my hand, he knew the time was right... and so did I!

It was just one of those times when everything fit perfectly together. And I don't know if I can be happier.

Thank you all again for your well-wishes.

(And, Java, you KNOW we'll get those wedding pictures up!!!! Too many people would have our heads if we didn't! )

Am, Rich, you know that I was offline this whole weekend, so I'm a little tardy with this, but...

WOO HOO!!

A great engagement story, too, confirming Dave-Guy Theory # 203 -- When it's right, you just know it.

Congratulations to you both.

I know, I know. Actually, I think your exact reply to my comment was "Well, DUH!"



Dave, that's one theory I can confirm!

And swampbear, thanks for the well wishes!

Congrats you guys!

And not trying to hijack, but any other dopers looking to tie the knot? A wedding would take my mom off my back for awhile...

But seriously, best of luck you two!
