From MySpace to Ours
Abraham and Monique met while studying at Midland College in September of 2009. They first
saw each other when Abraham stopped by the Career Center where Monique worked. However, it really began when Monique spotted Abraham on Myspace, saw he was single, and quickly sent him a friend request! Abraham then reached out asking why she had added him, and Monique’s response, “to be honest… because you are hot!” got his attention.
The two tied the knot at the Centennial Plaza in Midland, Tx. Monique wore a San Patrick of Barcelona, Spain dress. It was an Arosa style gown with a feather bodice and ruched waistline. The four layer cake was piped with swirls, pearls, ornate designs and the monogram “R” to top it all off.
Monique’s Advice:
“Nobody notices the small things. Seriously. Assign those willing to help a certain task that they are completely in charge of. Let them know exactly how you want it, and leave it until the wedding day” she says.
