Monroe Statement Necklace
Michael and Nina met in the month of January two years ago. Their first date led to a second shortly after and every following date snowballed into a committed relationship. In their first year as boyfriend and girlfriend, they took their time on an emotional and intellectual level to really know one another. In December of the their first year together, they knew they were meant to be and were very much in love. Michael, then, took this cue to propose to Nina. She ecstatically said yes.
In their second year together, now engaged, there was so much to plan and agree upon. Michael once proposed in a long ago previous relationship that was turned down before she could see the ring. Therefore, he opted for a simple wedding. She, on the other hand, wanted a formal wedding...but not necessarily black tie. They both wanted a church wedding. Details after that went back and forth. Now, though, there were two considerations - one they both needed to agree on and one only she needed to decide.
The date was not yet set, but the month was - January.
The dress. She could not decide because there were so many options she explored in every bridal salon she went to. There was one, though, that caught her attention after her exhaustive search -

In this moment, she was more in love with the gown than with Michael. This was it. This was the one. Pure perfection. She could now see herself as a bride and the month of January was around the corner...as was their decided date.
The day before the wedding presented a slight problem...
A blizzard.
All of the guests called in to say they were unable to attend with the same reason - they were snowed in. The minister, however, was still available.
"Gosh, Michael. Such a winter wonderland outside. But there is just no way we can get to the church. I mean, we'll need to be in our wedding attire before we get there. What do you think?"
The day of...
The power of the blizzard slowed to a standstill. The sky was richly overcast. The pavement was deeply covered in beautifully fresh white snow.
"Let's do it."
She smiled and said,
"Okay."
He was so handsome in his couture suit and tie. He chose not to wear a winter coat.
She was breathtaking in her perfect wedding gown. She chose not to wear a winter coat.
They and the minister were able to reach the church but stood just outside as the steps leading to the inside were too covered to walk through.
They held hand in hand and kissed sweetly after "I do" and "I now pronounce you husband and wife."
Their theme song with every following wedding anniversary was Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
