Wedding Love Letters

It was 6:00 am and her telephone was ringing, ringing, ringing.
Denise rolled over to see who could be calling her at this ungodly hour.
It was her agent. Now, every actor knows that agents don’t call you at 6:00 am unless it’s urgent, so she answered. “Denise, how fast can you get to Oxford Studio?” she heard.
“Why?” she asked.
“Well, I’ve just had a call from Powerhouse casting and apparently an actress showed up on the set of the Cadillac shoot rather tipsy,” said her agent. “ They asked me if I could get you there quickly.”
Denise says she laughed at the thought that someone would show up drunk to shoot a commercial, at 6:00 am no less.
“I can get there in 45 minutes,” she told her agent.
Denise jumped out of bed and ran around her apartment grabbing a bag full of potential wardrobe changes and shoes.
“I remember thinking, this is insane. What a way to make a living. I had better make good money for this one,” says Denise.
“When I got to the set there was an assistant that was completely crazed. He rushed me to hair and makeup, the whole time grumbling about this other actress and how he couldn’t believe what she’d done.
All I was thinking about was how badly I needed coffee. So I asked him to give me five minutes so I could get a cup.”
“Are you crazy,” he said. “You don’t have time for coffee now.”
Then he rushed her to the studio and into the front seat of the Cadillac on the set.
“I swear I wanted a coffee so badly I barely noticed the great looking actor who was playing my husband, “ says Denise.
He spoke up immediately.
“Wow, two wives in one day. I am good,” said Matt, “and look, I haven’t driven you to drink yet!” He pretended to drive the parked car.
“That really broke the ice,” says Denise. “We had a great morning, and by the time lunch was served we were inseparable. It was a long shoot and I was exhausted by the end of the day. I don’t think I even got a cup of coffee all day, but I did meet the love of my life.”
“And,” says Matt, “ Denise realized it was a lucrative US national commercial, so it was an amazing day for both of us.”
Today, we are both so pleased that you could join us in celebrating this, our most amazing day!

Matt & Denise

It was a beautiful sunny day as Sarah pulled her car up to the gas station for refueling. She says she had the overwhelming feeling that something great was going to happen that day.
As she popped the gas cap on her car, it flipped off and began to roll across the parking lot. As she chased after it, she noticed a man chuckling away to himself as he watched her from his car.
She finally caught it and strolled back to her car feeling rather silly.
When she passed by him, the nice looking young man who had been watching her finally spoke up.
“As a gentleman, I struggled with the thought of helping you or watching you. I have to say, you are nice to watch.”
Sarah laughed, not the least bit insulted that Joe had admitted to watching her, so she stuck up a conversation.
As it turns out, they were both on their way to work, but both running late. Neither had called their offices to let them know.
“What are you doing today?” Sarah asked.
“Supposed to be working,” Joe answered.
“Well,” said Sarah. “How would you like to go have coffee?”
“I think I’d like that very much,” he answered. As they headed to a local coffee shop, Sarah followed behind him.
“What am I doing?” she was thinking. “This is not like me to just ask a stranger out.” But it simply felt right.
It was the longest cup of coffee either of them had ever had.
They both ended up calling their offices to say they wouldn’t be in that day. Coffee turned into lunch, and lunch turned into dinner.
“If someone had told me I would meet the love of my life at a gas station, I would have told them they were crazy,” says Sarah.
“I should have probably helped her chase the gas cap,” says Joe, “but the way it happened was perfect. She is beautiful, and watching her was going to start my day off great. Who knew it would be the beginning of the best part of my life!”
And so here we are, celebrating our marriage.
The next time you pump gas, hopefully you will think of us and you’ll smile and know we are blessed that you shared in our day.
