They first met at a Catholic healing conference in Tallahassee, Florida. She travelled from Ohio and he travelled from Wisconsin. Sitting next to each other “accidentally”, led to joyful conversations, shared laughs and partnered opportunities. With the week-long event coming to a close, the two exchanged contact information to stay in touch. But they didn’t leave Tallahassee without one more final get-together.

Then suddenly, two photographers came out of the pews and started snapping pictures. Arnold took out the ring from his pocket, and with googly eyes, asked Allison to marry him. Her cheeks turned red. She couldn’t believe what was happening. She said yes.
