Nadine & Paul in Providence, RI
Paul had his eye on Nadine for a long time before he finally caught hers. Nadine went to college with Paul’s best friend. While vacationing on Martha's Vineyard with a group of people, the two finally met. They got along right away, but remained just friends for three years before a romance began. The Bride Nadine Gomes, 29, labor and employment attorney The Groom Paul Williams Jr., 29, sports and entertainment marketing client manager The Date July 7, 2006 Nadine and Paul were just returning from a Thanksgiving trip to Rhode Island to see Nadine's family, when Nadine started to feel disappointed that the holiday hadn't included a proposal. As it happened, Nadine was staying on in Rhode Island to attend her 10-year high school reunion, while Paul was about to go back to New York for his. I took him to the train station, ready to throw him out of the car and peel out, Nadine says. But then he asked me to walk him to the gate. As the two made their way to the station, Paul stopped and got down on one knee with a ring he designed himself.
