Gerry’s love story with Micah began long before they realized they were meant to be. Having known each other for over two decades through their church, their paths intertwined in ways they never could have imagined. It was a mission trip to Kosova in 2007 that first brought them close, although it would take 15 years for their friendship to blossom into something more. Fast forward to 2022, both Gerry and Micah separately sought guidance from a pastor who played a pivotal role in their lives. Little did they know, their pastor had a surprise in store for them. Gerry shared her hopes and prayers for her future husband with the pastor, unknowingly describing Micah to a tee. Likewise, Micah received encouragement from the same pastor to reach out to a mystery woman, later revealed to be Gerry.
Their love story took a charming turn when Micah decided to express his feelings through a heartfelt letter, delivered by their pastor. Gerry’s excitement upon receiving the letter was palpable, and thus began their journey of texts, calls, and eventually, their first date. From shared meals to laughter-filled movie nights, their bond only grew stronger. Then, on a picturesque day in December 2022, Micah orchestrated a proposal that would change their lives forever. By a beautiful waterfall, he nervously got down on one knee and asked Gerry to be his wife. With tears of joy, she said yes, sealing their love in a moment of pure magic.
Their wedding day was a reflection of their journey, filled with love, faith, and personal touches. Gerry’s choice of dress, our style Gwendolyn chosen from Clarice’s Bridal, was nothing short of spectacular. She customized it to her liking, adding a touch of sparkle and ensuring it felt perfect for her, especially considering her visual impairment.
