Jennifer & Mathew: An Intercultural Wedding in Colorado Springs, CO

After appearing unexpectedly during Jennifer's business trip to San Diego, Mathew surprised his girlfriend even further when he returned from a restaurant bathroom with a ring in his hand. He passed it off with a simple “look what I found,” inducing all sorts of confusion. The Bride Jennifer Gorny, 34, medical research associate The Groom Mathew Alexander, 35, neurosurgeon The Date April 21 “After seven-and-a-half years of dating, I wanted him down on one knee professing how he couldn’t live without me,” reports Jennifer. The ring was nothing like she’d pictured -- something didn’t seem quite right -- and, sure enough, Mathew blurted out “April fool!” This quasi-proposal was a fake-out. Following a romantic dinner the next evening, funny man Mathew turned serious, proclaiming his love -- on bended knee -- on a rooftop with the city skyline in the distance.
