She made the first move | Read Evanna & Jamal’s wedding story

The first time she (Evanna) set her eyes on him (Jamal) , she liked what she saw and made sure she got him.

“I had been eyeing Jamal for quite some time and had asked about him frequently, but did not have the courage to approach him. One Sunday after church, I asked a mutual friend of ours to find out if he was single. So our friend asked him and mentioned that someone inquired about him. He asked for my email address and then he emailed me on July 30, 2011. We exchanged phone numbers via email and began talking.” She narrated!

How he proposed:

“I left work early on Friday, July 31st, 2014 to go to a local florist to purchase two dozen red and white roses. Once I made it to her house, I began assembling the roses and rose petals to spell out “Will You Marry Me?” on her living room floor. After catching my breath from my hard work and nerves flaring, I dimmed the lights over the fireplace and placed the engagement ring on her mantle. The waiting began…

When Evanna made it home from work, she was more focused on Chloe, her dog, who happily greeted her at the door as soon as she walked in. She then noticed the rose petals on the floor, but didn’t realize that there was a message/question waiting for her response. I came out of hiding and asked Evanna to look for the message in the flowers. She became overwhelmed and started to scream and cry before saying, “Yes!” I quickly retrieved the ring from the mantle, got down on one knee and placed it on her ring finger.” Jamal revealed.
