Engagement Story Contest Winners

Bride & Groom: Wedding Date:
Anne Breger & Ken Altman March 15, 2008
Engagement Story:

When Ken and I first started dating, we both lived near a park and would go there often to take walks together and get to know eachother. On one of our first dates, we came across a beautiful wooden bridge that I could not cross due to uneven beams and high heels. Fortunately, Ken took this wonderful opportunity to carry me over the bridge. We both have always remembered that day and that act as being magical.

When planning our engagement, Ken tracked down an artist by the name of Larry Anderson, who we both greatly admire. Larry paints various picturesque landscapes. Ken commissioned a drawing from him for his proposal.

On the day he proposed (Jan. 20, 2007), Ken gave me a one-of-a-kind picture by Larry Anderson of the bridge he has so lovongly carried me across three and a half years earlier. Under the picture of the bridge were the words: "Anne, Let's cross all of our bridges together....Will you marry me?" And then Ken got on one knee and presented me with my engagement ring. It was the most beautiful, magical, and sincere day of our lives.
