the details...Chocolate Bride~Vanilla Groom "The Flavors of LOVE"


There are many choices in choosing Ice Cream. Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Chocolate Chip so many more. Who says we need to like only one flavor? The same goes for love…



When it comes to the flavors of love, how many are there? MANY! Sometimes you choose love and sometimes love chooses you. Either way there are no limitations on the flavors of love. It’s a choice and no one has the right to be judge and jury of your relationship. Be open to the possibilities and when you least expect it love just might step in.

Today’s flavor of love is Chocolate Bride, Brittany and Vanilla Groom, Cameron – a combination of Pralines ‘N Cream, their ice cream of choice.

About the Bride: Brittany is a high school teacher in Houston , TX and has been teaching for 3 1/2 yrs , holds a bachelors degree in music and trained in voice to sing opera. About the Groom: Cameron graduated from Texas Bible Institute in 2006 and is currently finishing his Bachelor of Science degree in audio production at The Art Institute. Currently he is the lead guitarist at Houston Worship Center and also teaches guitar lessons for a major retail store.

The Beginning…“When I was in Houston on business a year ago, Brittany and I meet for lunch and at that time she was single. Deciding to take a step back on dating and seek more of a spiritual journey to re-establish a relationship with the Lord. Something I believe in for any relationship to stand on its own. Brittany’s decision to put God first was setting her steps for a new beginning and their beginning started at Church. The couple’s families have known each other for years through Brittany Dad congregation. However, the couple had never meet until she started going to the Church where Cameron worships and is lead guitarist. By the way Brittany now sings there. Match made in musical heaven? Absolutely!”


The Middle: On May 27th, Cameron surprised Brittany at the high school where she is a speech and debate teacher. One of her students who also is taking cosmetology mentioned to Brittany that she had written an essay about her favorite teacher. The favorite teacher was Brittany and the student won the essay contest. The prize was a free manicure from the cosmetology department. The student asked Miss Rodgers if she could come and get her manicure during her 6th period conference time? Of course, she agreed! Who would pass up the opportunity to get a free Mani! There was just 2 minutes left during her conference time and she needed to get back to class. Upon entering her class she noticed on the chalk board “WILL YOU MARRY ME?” Cameron came from the corner followed by her sister, a few faculty members with flowers in hand. Next thing Cameron was down on bended knee. By this time the bell had rung, a crowd of students had gathered by the door cheering and clapping.

To be continued… Oh and of course she said “YES” When you have a solid foundation to start with the blessings are yours. I’m so happy for Brittany and Cameron. We wish them peace, unconditional love and happiness as they start their new life together. I did ask the couple a few key questions, as they both know some people only believe in one flavor, but we believe love has many Flavors.
