An Unforgettable Proposal: He Pop the Question While I Was in a Towel, Soaked and Surprised!

Latonya and D’Andre Wright first crossed paths in April 2000 at the University of Alabama, specifically at Smithwood Circle, where the Delta and Kappa houses shared a parking area. Introduced by a mutual friend, Latonya was aware of D’Andre’s presence since freshman year. “Everyone knew who he was,” she remarked. D’Andre, amused, recounted spotting Latonya while in his car and expressing a desire to meet her. They exchanged numbers after a party and casually dated for two years, nurturing a strong friendship filled with romantic undertones. Their relationship evolved when D’Andre relocated to Atlanta post-MBA. After an ultimatum from Latonya about long-distance dating, he moved to Birmingham in 2007, leading to a serious relationship. The couple married in 2010 at Ross Bridge Resort & Spa, with evident chemistry and joyful moments throughout their wedding day. They enjoy a family life with two children, Brayden and Riley, and are active members in their community, highlighting the importance of friendship and effective communication in marriage.
