Emily & Will in Omaha, NE

After a long weekend in San Diego in the summer of 2004, Will called the airline the morning he and Emily were to return home to double-check their reservation and confirm the flight time. Will said, 'Oops, I entered the wrong return date online! We aren't scheduled to return to Omaha until Monday!' Emily remembers. She was frustrated at first, but soon realized that the mix-up meant another day of vacation. They drove to a secluded beach where Will told her they'd been invited to a bonfire and stumbled upon a circle of candles and rose petals. I told everyone to watch where they were stepping, because we might be ruining someone's moment, Emily says. Little did I know what was really going on…Will grabbed my hand, turned me around, and told me that it was our moment. Sneaky Will had never intended to return home that Sunday and even had friends with cameras and champagne on hand to record the momentous event. The Bride Emily Turner, 25, systems manager The Groom William Andres, 25, law student The Date July 30 Thanks to a Martini Slide and a cowbell, Emily and Will discovered their wedding day was an occasion they'd never forget.
