Susan & Chris in Orlando, FL

We are truly best friends, says Susan Harrison, describing her relationship with Chris Zeras. The lovebirds first met in 1997 at the Winter Park hot spot where Chris, then a recent F.S.U. graduate, tended bar. Four years later, the two wed in a beautifully appointed Florida courtyard. The Bride Susan Harrison, pharmaceutical sales rep The Groom Christopher Zera, construction equipment sales rep The Date October 19 When I found the Courtyard at Lake Lucerne, I knew it was the place, says Susan. It reminded me of the movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil and made me feel like I was in the middle of Savannah, Georgia.
