We met at West Chester University. I was captain of the women\u2019s tennis team and Keith was my strength and conditioning coach.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Keith proposed at my brother\u2019s house the day after our 4 year anniversary. He hid the ring box under the Christmas tree. He wore three shirts layered under \u00a0a hoodie. When I saw the ring box he unzipped the hoodie and the first shirt read \u201cI didn\u2019t find it in my shoe, but I found you the perfect shiny rock\u201d. Once I realized what was happening I was laughing and crying at the same time. He pulled off the first shirt and revealed a second one that read \u201copen it\u201d. Due to my excitement I forgot to even open the box\u2013good thing he gave me prompts! I open the box and was so amazed at the gorgeous ring he had selected. He took off the second shirt to reveal the final message which read \u201cplease say yes\u201d. It was adorable and totally unexpected! He is the best.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

We wanted to have a small intimate wedding with our closest family and friends. We wanted it to be elegant and fun. We incorporated the flowers that he usually buys me for my birthday\/anniversary: orchids. Neither of us wanted a theme\u2013other than I love sparkles so we added that to the invites, paper products, bouquets, welcome bags and sparkler exit.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

The best part of the day was being with our families and sharing our love with them. My brother surprised me from Afghanistan\u2013a total shock. Having the people who were there from the start was really special and important to us. We really enjoyed dancing and celebrating with all if our loved ones.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

We want to remember the moments of the ceremony where we shared our love for each other, the feeling of excitement for our future, and the overall joy of the day.<\/div>\n

Advice for other brides\/grooms:<\/div>\n

Remember that you are not alone in the planning process. Your friends and families are just as excited as you and are usually willing to help with the details. Don\u2019t get down if changes have to be made to little things like flowers or cake\u2013in the end they are not the most important thing. Enjoy the process, because you only get one shot if your lucky!<\/div>\n

There are some couples when you meet them, they take you totally by surprise. When I first met Chantelle and Keith, I was so excited about their wedding, because it was small and intimate, and Chantelle was so sure of exactly what she wanted- I just love that.
