Couple #2

My name is Grace and my amazing better half is Patrick. We are better known as the “Boogers,” that's our nickname for each other.

Let's see... we met in the 6th grade in Mr. Clarke's 1st period art class. We were friends all throughout middle school and high school. He had a few ugly girlfriends and, OK I’ll admit, I had a few ugly boyfriends. Finally senior year, we went to our high school prom together where during the last dance Patrick confessed his love for me. He said "I really like you and you are the only thing that would stop me from going to away to UF." Well, he's a Gator and I'm a Cane. We've been dating for four years and let's just say a long distance relationship is not as easy as it seems; but I rather have him far away then not have him at all. We got engaged December 24 (Christmas Eve), 2006 in beautiful NYC. We both graduate in May of this year and are looking forward to starting our brand new lives together, in the same city.

I heard about the contest through an e-mail I received from Simply Captivating Productions.

Our wedding date is set for April 12, 2008. Both of our parents got married on the twelfth so we wanted to maintain the tradition. We are getting married in sunny Miami , Florida . There simply is no place like home.
