Manuel\u2019s best friend instantly saw how perfect the two would be together, so he introduced them. A few years later, Manuel knew he was more than ready to make Sharon his wife and had a surprise proposal planned. One January evening, the couple made a trip to Hermann Park in Houston\u2019s Museum District. Manuel led Sharon over to a romantic little gazebo and asked Sharon to be his, forever. He even hired a photographer to capture the moment from a hidden location (<em>bonus points!<\/em>) But Manuel\u2019s plans didn\u2019t stop there. He had dinner arrangements for them to get to\u2026where their families were waiting to celebrate! Seriously, could this engagement get any sweeter? The two said vows and celebrated their love story with a ceremony and reception at Houston\u2019s ultra-chic\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/vendor\/hotel-zaza-houston-museum-district\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hotel ZaZa<\/a>. Their gold and black color palette was a perfectly stunning complement to the hotel\u2019s deeply romantic tones.
