Becky & Nick in Jonestown, TX

After a romantic Italian proposal, Becky and Nick made plans for a summer wedding much closer to home -- though not without Italian influences. A black-and-white theme held together all the key details, creating a contemporary contrast to the romantic, Italian-style setting. THE BRIDE Rebecca (Becky) Lynn Wilkins THE GROOM Jonathan Nicholas (Nick) Blackhall THE DATE June 4 During her senior year of college, Becky, 23, an interior designer, jumped at the chance to spend time abroad in Italy, even though it meant being farther away from her boyfriend, Nick 25, a studio operator for a local television news program. He had graduated from the same school the year before, and he told Becky he would be too wrapped up with work to take time off for such an elaborate trip. On Becky's fourth day in Rome, even though she was already exhausted from sightseeing, her friends convinced her to join them for a night out on the town. While she paused to take a snapshot of her pals in front of the Pantheon, she heard a familiar voice behind her say, Do you want me to take that picture for you? Within seconds, her friends were the ones taking pictures, as Nick dropped to one knee and proposed to Becky.
