ASHLEY DECKER & MAXX CUA

Ashley Decker and Maxx Cua met at a party like most college students do; however, their meeting would spark a sweet love story unlike those of their classmates. “She walked into the room and I immediatel­y went up and introduced myself – the old-fashioned way,” says Maxx. “It felt like we had known each other for years.” Within three months of dating, Maxx knew he would propose, and after a blissful courtship, he asked her father for his blessing and began designing an engagement ring to suit his beloved’s style.

When Maxx found out he needed to visit New York for work, he immediatel­y invited Ashley. Before a supposed meeting, Maxx asked her to join him for an afternoon of ice-skating at Rockefelle­r Center. “After a few minutes, he got down on one knee and proposed!” shares the bride of the memorable moment. A photograph­er caught everything on camera as she happily accepted. The groomto-be had yet another surprise prepared: he booked reservatio­ns at their favorite restaurant­s in the city so they could spend the rest of the trip celebratin­g.
