Valentines Day Announcement: Bride Wins $5,000 Toward Her Dream Wedding
Romantic Valentines Day Contest Kick-Off, Another Bride or Groom to Win $10,000 in 2008, plus A "Dream Wedding Planning Day" with Senior Editor of Brides.com
Healdsburg, CA (PRWEB) February 13, 2008 -- Valentines Day is a day of romance, when approximately ten percent of the 2.3 million estimated couples who become engaged pop the question (source: Diamond Information Center). According to one source, "Proposals are becoming increasingly elaborate…." When Brandy Hebert of New Orleans, LA learned she had won $5,000 toward the cost of her dream wedding to fiancé Jerry, she shared her unique wedding proposal story, a story suitable for Valentines Day romance:
2007 "I Do with Mirassou" Winners
One of the most unique qualities of my fiancé Jerry is his sense of humor. While driving with my sister to have dinner, I was suddenly pulled over by three unmarked SUVs. These guys did not look like our local police. I thought they were the Feds! They looked underneath my car and ignored my questions of "Why am I being pulled over?" I was asked to step out of the car, and then they questioned me about where I was going, and if I had ever been arrested before! Ten minutes later when I was at the point of tears, the "officer" turned me around, and I saw Jerry down on one knee with my beautiful ring. Just like an episode of candid camera, my parents then appeared from behind a bush with a video camera. They caught the whole thing on tape … even the part when I said "YES!"
After being together for eight years, including a 5-month separation during Hurricane Katrina's aftermath, Brandy and Jerry are making final preparations for their wedding, which will take place in April in New Orleans' Audubon Tea Room. And now, thanks to Mirassou Winery, this lucky couple will also have $5,000 to put toward the cost of their wedding.
