The Bride Amy Becker, 33, a professional services marketer The Groom Jason Nix, 32, an irrigation specialist The Date April 12  The happy couple had been introduced by mutual friends a year before. Jason, ever the romantic, chose to surprise me by proposing at a local pub in front of about 150 onlookers, says Amy.
