Hilary and Paul got to know each other when they ended up in the same class together in college in San Luis Obispo. Then, during homecoming week that year, Paul’s fraternity asked Hilary’s sorority to work on the homecoming float with them. The two were inseparable that week and after homecoming, Paul asked Hilary out on a date.
The Bride Hilary Kasbergen, 30, teacher
The Groom Paul Zimmerman, 33, dairy man
The Date October 25
The couple had been ring shopping a number of rimes before they made a decision to drive home with one. Once Hilary knew there was a ring, she thought that every night thereafter would be the proposal night. Paul kept her on her toes for two months until one night, when the two had just finished up dinner at a local restaurant. The waiter brought the check, and Paul asked Hilary to check and see how much they owed -- and that’s when she saw the ring sticking out of the bill folder.
