Katie and Brian had been dating long-distance for over a year when Katie drove out one day to Virginia Beach to see Brian, as she often did.
The Bride Katie Helbig, 26, nurse
The Groom Brian Couch, 26, nurse
The Date June 9
She arrived tired from making the four-hour drive after her shift and wanted to nap. But Brian said he had something to show her and brought out a new camcorder. So that she wouldn’t think he’d only bought something for himself, he presented her with flowers. She got up to put them in a vase and found a ring box among the stems. Before she knew it, Brian was proposing and the camera had caught it all on tape. Katie and Brian were married by the beach on a beautiful day in June.
