Maura & Brad in Fuquay-Varina, NC

These two just clicked—literally. After viewing her profile on MySpace.com, Brad asked Maura to get drinks with him. She accepted the offer, and sparks flew on that first date. Brad thought it was fate because it was the first time he’d ever browsed profiles for singles—and he found me, says Maura. The following week, Brad asked Maura out again, and within a month, they were exclusive. The Bride Maura Welch, 32, couture seamstress/designer The Groom Brad Stewart, 30, retail manager The Date July 11 It only took Brad eight months to want to propose to Maura. While at Brad's apartment one night, the couple began talking about the future. Suddenly, Brad dropped to one knee to pop the question. Without Maura knowing, Brad had asked her mom if he could have the diamond from Maura's great-grandmother's ring. He had the stone reset into a new ring with a floral design, per Maura's request. The ring wound up inspiring the floral motif that appeared on the cake and stationery at the couple's wedding a year later. Self-professed girly girl Maura chose her favorite colors for the palette: sky blue and hot pink.
