Adrian Franklin wasn't always so in love with his wife. As a five-year-old ring bearer, Adrian was 'devastated' when he was told he'd have to walk down the aisle with flower girl Brooke Gibson.
Adrian told WBTV: 'She had a crush on me but she got on my nerves.' But Brooke knew that it was true love and didn't give up. Instead, she kept chasing him around the playground until he saw sense. Brooke said: 'He really started to come around in middle school.'
After reconnecting at church as teenagers, Adrian finally asked Brooke out. And he made up for lost time with a beautiful proposal in November 2014. He asked his friends to ride by in a boat with a sign that said 'Will you marry me Brooke.'
Adrian then got down on one knee and handed Brooke a question mark. Having known he was the one at five years old, Brooke said yes immediately.
Now, 17 years on from their first trip down the aisle, the flower girl and ring bearer walked down the very same one as bride and groom.
This time Adrian was all smiles.
