What Melanie loves most about Nick:
I love how genuine Nick is. What you see is what you get. I love that he can always make me smile and laughs at my jokes, no matter how dumb they may be. I love the way he can make all my worries go away with a simple hug. Nick is my best friend, and I can't imagine my life without him. I love that I can be 100% myself, even if that means being a complete dork. He brings out the best in me and I can't wait to be his wife!

What Nick loves most about Melanie:
I love how Melanie makes any bad day a great one, just by her smile and incredible personality. I love how I’ve found that perfect someone out there who is just as much of a dork as I am, if not more, and isn’t afraid to show it. Melanie makes me laugh every single day, whether it's with her witty sarcasm that rivals mine, or her random dancing/singing that often comes out of nowhere! I love how much I’ve learned from her, in just over two years, and I feel like I’ve known her for my entire life. I love that Melanie is my best friend, and how she knows me better than anyone ever will. Melanie truly is my “better half,” and I can’t imagine where I’d be without her.
