How did he do it?
Christopher: We were just sitting on the couch. It was a typical Tuesday night.

Name two things you agree on.

Name two you disagree on.

What’s the one thing your wedding absolutely must have?
Christopher: Open bar for sure.
Arienne: Live music and it has to be outside.
What’s more important to you, the ceremony or the reception?

Why do you deserve a free wedding?
Arienne: Instead of the tradition where the bride’s parents pay for the wedding, I’ll be paying for the wedding with Chris’ help. It would lift a heavy burden.
