YOU ARE INVITED TO CELEBRATE

The couple met in 2007 at Southern IL University in Carbondale, staying in the same dorm building freshman year. Jeanea would see Darrell all the time on her floor, on the phone looking mean and unapproachable lol. She learned quickly that his exterior look had nothing to do with the sweet kindhearted man that she knows and loves today. After seeing Darrell throughout the dorms, the two officially met on an elevator and after that day the couple became good friends. As time progressed the two grew closer and begin to slowly fall for one another. One day, Darrell decided to profess his love for Jeanea and after their four year friendship the couple made it official and boarded the train of love.

The couple drove downtown and walked a few blocks over with a horse and carriage awaiting to take them to their destination. It was a great start to a perfect evening. They arrived at Navy Pier and docked the Odyssey Ship. After having dinner and a few drinks, Jeanea wanted to go to the observation deck to get a good view of the city so the couple begin heading towards the exit to go upstairs. Upon heading upstairs, Darrell stopped in the middle of the room and called out for everyone's attention. He begin to say a bunch of sweet tingz, then got on one knee to propose. The bride to be said yes and here they are now, still aboard the train of love with the next stop being forever!
