There seems to be a lot of these going around but I like them so I decided to start one. I'll do about 10 rounds, I'll decide when we get there how many more. Simple rules, just fill out the sign up form to sign up and I'll make up the naming rules as we go along.:)
Rules for sign up:
- NO same gender couples.
- Name your couple from the name bank.(last names are up to you)NN are fine.
- Simple spelling changes are aloud just as long as it doesn't change the sound of the name, such as Mark to Marc or Katherine to Catherine.
- Ages are aloud, but you have to keep up with them and I'll probably say how long it's been every round.
- You can write if you want to (see prompt) but it's not required it's just fun to read (I'd actually like it if you did, but if you can't you don't have to). :)
- You can have up to 5 names for each person, no less than 2 names (FN and MN)
- Have Fun Playing! (don't worry, if you don't want to you don't have to just act cheerful for the others) :)

Hunter and Robin were High School sweethearts but ended up growing apart at the end of grade 12. They broke up and went a few years without seeing each other but met again at one of their mutual friend's parties. They decided to start dating and found that they had missed each other. Seven months later Hunter proposed in front of the large floral clock when they went to Niagra Falls together.
The wedding was fairly small, each only inviting close family and friends. For their honeymoon they went to British Columbia, more specifically Vancouver Island. The couple is currently living in the small town of Wawa, Ontario.

Two years ago, Chris and Abby first met in the Starbucks where they both liked to get their capuccinos after lunch. They exchanged phone numbers and started dating a few weeks later. Chris proposed to her the day after their one-year-anniversary in her favourite Italian restaurant. They got married in the church of Abby's small hometown - a beautiful wedding with friends and family, after which they took off to spend their honeymoon in France. Having thought long and hard about it, they decided to leave London and just moved into a Victorian house in a Somerset village.

Craig and Holly met in their early college years, and they quickly became friends. They seemed to have a lot in common, so it came as no surprise to everyone when they started dating. Shortly after getting their degrees (Craig in Computing and Holly in Education), they decided to spend a romantic weekend in Paris for Valentine's Day, which Craig fully enjoyed by proposing to Holly by the Eiffel tower. After much hugging, squealing, and kissing, she said yes. Seven months later, they married in a small ceremony at Owlpen Manor. Holly being a history addict, the wedding was all in medieval style, and later the newlyweds described it as 'simply perfect'. They decided to return to Paris for their honeymoon, seeing it as it held such lovely memories. As of now, Holly and Craig are living in a small semi-detached Edwardian house (they hope to move to a bigger place in the future though) in Stroud, Gloucestershire.

DW: Autumn Margaret
About 4 years ago, Autumn was at College and living in a house with 5 other people to save on money. One of her flatmates was a girl named Eloise. Eloise's older brother had not long come out of a messy relationship and needed cheering up, so when the flatmates decided to host a party, Eloise invited her older brother to come along.
It was at the party that Autumn met Eloise's older brother, Jonathan, or JJ as he was usually known. Autumn and JJ were instantly attracted to each other and the physical side of their relationship quickly progressed, though both were loathe to enter a true relationship having both just come out of other relationships.
They kept things casual for awhile, but the time came when they had to admit that the feelings between them went far beyond just a physical relationship, and they officially started dating about 5 months after their first meeting. Once they did start dating, they knew very early on that they would be together forever, and they moved into their own apartment after being together for six months.
JJ proposed to Autumn on their 2 year anniversary. He had originally planned to ask her over dinner at their favorite restraunt, but chickened out. After dinner, they had tickets to the movies, and it was right outside the movie theatre that JJ dropped to one knee and asked Autumn to be his wife. She laughed, but agreed :)
They married 18 months later, on valentine's day, surrounded by 110 guests. The ceremony wasn't what one would call emotional, as the bride and groom were truly too busy laughing and having fun to cry :) After the ceremony, they ate, drunk and danced the night away.
For their honeymoon, they spent a week soaking up the sun on the white sand beaches of Samoa, and when they left to return to New Zealand, they both felt as if a peice of themselves would forever remain there in Samoa.
8 months on, Autumn and JJ have just moved out of their tiny one bedroom apartment into a beautiful 3 bedroom home, and can't wait to start their family.
FYI: This story is 100% real and is the true story of how my husband James and I met, dated, the proposal, our wedding & our honeymoon :) I love our story, so just thought I'd share it with you all as well!

I may not write every round. It depends on how much time I have.
Matthias and Wendy have known each other since kindergarten. They both went to the same small town school and were friendly to each other but not friends. When they were both juniors in high school Matthias asked Wendy out on a date and the rest, as they say, is history.
After 8 years of dating, Matthias proposed to Wendy at their favorite spot on the lake (his family owns the land around half of it). It was a lovely, humid summer night. The mosquitoes weren't bad at all. Crickets and frogs chirped everywhere in the background, and the occasional fish plopped in the lake. The moon was full and the stars were bright. There was even a loon sounding in the distance. Matthias knelt down on one knee and proposed marriage to her. Of course she said yes!
They both agreed on having a small, intimate wedding. Only parents, siblings, grandparents, and two friends each attended the wedding. It was outdoors by the lake where he first proposed to her. It was a lovely ceremony.
Their honeymoon was a gift from Wendy's parents. They gave them tickets to Scotland, Wendy's favorite place in the world.
Currently they live in an apartment in their hometown. They hope to save up enough money to build a house by his family's lake. His parents have agreed to sign over some of the land to them.

Ally and Ross met at the age of 19. They were both attending the prestige college of Oxford. Ally was an English major and happened to bump into Ross, a double major (Physics and Biology), while out walking her roommate's dog, Petunia. There was an instant attraction between the two and at the age of 22 they got married in Wales (as that is where Ally's family lives). It was beautiful, flowers everywhere and by the sea. The couple then went on a honeymoon to Italy. When they got back to London they packed up and moved to Holland, as Ross wanted to study abroad.

William and Emma are your typical modern day couple and surprisingly (or possibly not so much) met online. It wasn’t your typical dating service they both happened to log on to but a simple dating site (if not an opportunistic site for people to just hook up for sake of sex alone). What began as casual IM-ing turned into something a bit deeper than either expected. Soon they began emailing back and forth which led to Will asking Emm for her number. She knew that there could be a possibility that he was an axe murderer but seeing that things in her life weren’t really getting any better (recently dumped by a guy that was seeing two other girls besides her, odd and end jobs that she loathed while she desperately searched for a career and Mother Nature dropped in for a visit making the craving for a quart of Chocolate Chunk Rocky Road ice cream unbearable all the while knowing that if she indulged it would completely ruin her diet and her attempt to stay in her size 8 jeans) so she decided to go for it. In retrospect, it was the best decision of her life.
Will and Emm dated for four years before Will decided it was time to pop the question. It was New Year’s Eve and they had decided to spend the evening at the Mountain Lodge for the annual New Year’s Dinner and Dance. At fifteen ‘till midnight, Will escorted the lovely Emm outside to enjoy the crisp winter air and the view of the city down below. White Christmas lights still adorned the eaves of the lodge illuminating a soft yellow glow making the lodge a quaint ginger bread house right out of Hansel and Gretel. Will was so nervous and after a quite a few moments of hesitation and silence Emm finally asked him what was the matter. “Nothing,” he replied. She couldn’t see is face and his tone was discerning and full of worry. Maybe it was because of the disgruntled worker slinging logs of wood into the wood burning box making cracks loud enough to be heard to the city below. Fear rose within her. She panicked, “Are you going to break up with me?!” Will laughed and said, “No, quite the opposite.” He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a small velvet box and opened the tiny vessel. A ring.
