Erica & Chris in Jekyll Island, GA

Erica and Chris wasted no time becoming husband and wife –- they planned their romantic Jekyll Island wedding, filled with bright color and personal touches, in just four months! THE BRIDE Erica Lutes, 24, a second-grade teacher THE GROOM Chris Luzar, 25, a tight end for the National Football League's New York Giants THE DATE July 3 The theory that opposites attract is a proven scientific fact. But when it comes to matters of the heart, it's a bit harder to prove -- except in the case of Erica and Chris. She's a city girl, born and raised in Miami, and he's a true country boy from Virginia. But after their first date (coffee and conversation at Starbucks), their attraction was unmistakable. It felt like we had known each other forever, Erica remembers. We laughed until Starbucks closed. Four months later, Chris proposed to Erica in the very same spot.
