Meet Ben!
1. What was it like when you asked your girlfriend to marry you?
I was very excited. I could hardly keep from exploding the entire time. And I was so excited that I could hardly plan out how I wanted to propose to her. And I was rushing it all, so that’s the main reason I was nervous. I was excited, because obviously, I was pretty sure she would say yes. 🙂 And we were going to enter into this next stage of life together and enjoy companionship for the rest of our lives.
2. Did you have strong opinions about how the wedding should be or were you more like “She can get married in a brown paper bag for all I care!”?
Yes. I wanted a wedding that would glorify God first and foremost. One that would make my future wife happy and a good memory for her to look back on. And I wanted it to be fun for everyone! Those were the three main things.
- Was there a point in the planning process that you seriously considered just getting in the car to go elope?
