Picture this. Its Christmas and you visit home to spend time with your family. A friend asks you to help a friend out with a move. Now, anyone would understandably pass on helping a stranger move during their vacation. Unless you’re one of the good guys. You know a keeper. Or unless your friend manages to bribe you. Pessimists say good guys finish last. Well he he haha to them because in this case, this good guy ended up with a wife!

Sound to good to be true. I kid you not, thats how these two cuties ended up putting a ring on it! Chad was living in San Diego at the time but was in Tampa visiting his parents for Christmas. Rachel (a stranger to Chad ) called her friend to have her come help her move. Rachel didn’t have a truck, so she goes and calls another friend to help. Funny, this friend with the truck didn’t want to help two girls move by himself so he “bribed” Chad into coming along to help me move. I’m curious what the bribe was… hmmmm put a pin in that, we’ll ask him at the wedding!

There they met for the first time. Sadly, Rachel had to move the next day and Chad had to go back to San Diego but not before he told her

“I want to see you again”

Rachel thought to herself “this won’t work!”. Well Chad really meant it when he said he wanted to see Rachel again because he flew weeks later to Rachel for a ski trip, and 2 weeks after that Rachel visited him in San Diego. It didn’t take long for them to realize there was something special there. Rachel was wrong. This did work. And pretty soon they will begin their next chapter as husband and wife!
