What do you do after ten years together, one son and countless hurdles jumped? You tie the knot, that’s what you do! Barbara and Stanley Bellot wanted their son, Ken, to have a strong image of a loving family and they just knew the time was right.
After ten years of dating, Stanley talked to Barbara’s mother, telling her he was ready to marry her daughter, something he honestly hadn’t seen himself considering in the past. He now knows this makes his connection to his wife that much stronger. The proposal was done in a simplistic but heart-warming fashion. On Barbara’s birthday morning, August 15th, 2010, she found a blue box on her pillow while getting dressed for work. Unbeknownst to her, at 5AM, she opened the box and discovered an engagement ring. “I was ecstatic,” Barbara recalls fondly. Stanley had the help of their son, affectionately called Ken who assisted in choosing the ring.

I am just really happy for this couple who decided to take their relationship to the next level, which is marriage! Many people think that it doesn’t make a difference if you’re married or staying together, but it does! I can see the joy in the bride’s face about being a wife and not just a girlfriend, and you can be sure that their son is estatic! I have been happily married now for 18 years, and I am hear to tell you that marriage is a wonderful institution that God ordained! Congratulations again to Stanley and Barbara!!
