At a party with all our friends around, I stopped everyone in their tracks as I brought out a pretty box and offered it to Katharine. Everyone watched as she opened it to reveal a silver bracelet that was engraved \u2018As You Wish\u2019. Since \u201cThe Princess Bride\u201d is one of our favorite movies, everyone immediately knew the reference and Katharine said \u2018YES, as you wish\u2019 that she would marry me! We will be legally wed in June 2016, after twenty-four years together. While in graduate school, we met at the University in 1992. Since we were in different programs, we had not met until the course Katharine was teaching brought me and my friends in to be the &#8220;gay speakers panel&#8221; for the class. After that, it wasn\u2019t long before we were inseparable. In 1993, we had a lovely commitment ceremony (long before anyone thought that &#8220;gay marriage&#8221; might become &#8220;marriage&#8221; in our lifetime). These many happy years later, we have had the opportunity to make many dear friends in Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, North Carolina, and several far-flung parts of the world. Now we are excited to continue on our adventures together, and want to celebrate a new-found recognition of our relationship with our friends. These engagement photos at Castle McCullouc were a dream come true. We are planning the most amazing, charming \u201cPrincess Bride\u201d wedding with two\u00a0brides, costumes, quotes and \u201cMiracle Max\u2019s chocolate truffles\u201d. Because nothing can stop \u201ctrue love!&#8221;&nbsp;VENDORSPhotography: FireRose Photography\u00a0Venue: Castle McCullouch, Jamestown, North Carolina"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"North Carolina Princess Bride\u2013Themed Lesbian Engagement","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/north-carolina-princess-bride-themed-lesbian-engagement\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
