Melissa is from East Greenwich, RI and Walter is from Warwick.  They’ve been engaged since August 29, 2008 and here’s why Melissa thinks they should win the NBC10 Free Wedding Giveaway:

“We think that we should win this free wedding because we are two extremely appreciative individuals. We have been blessed with the gift of finding eachother, and now we are so overwhelmingly grateful to have the opportunity to enter such a generous and kind contest. It would truly be a dream come true for the both of us. We want to share with you a small poem that has a lot of meaning to us! We actually have this poem hanging on our wall…

“There I was - one minute getting to know you, enjoying you, and wondering where it would all lead…and the next, thinking about you all the time, knowing that I never, ever wanted to be without you! I guess that’s the way life is. You’re going along doing your everyday things, and out of the blue, life gives you this wonderful present. A present you had no idea how much you wanted. That’s what you are to me, you know a precious gift…Falling in love with you was something I hadn’t expected, but being in love with you is something I couldn’t stop, even if I tried. What I’m trying to say is-you’re “it” for me, now and forever.“ - Linda Lee Elrod

Thank you so much for considering us, winning this contest would also be…“wonderful present”
