Jon & Michala Beck

June 4, 2022

Jon Robert & Michala were raised in Texarkana, Texas. They both attended Pleasant Grove ISD from kindergarten through high school but were just acquaintances. Michala secretly admired Jon Robert through the years, but they never had any opportunities to get to know one another until one pre-AP Algebra class. Michala thought she finally had her chance when they were seated next to each other, but Jon Robert couldn’t have blown her off quickly enough. Michala’s crush quickly turned to dislike until the day their lives changed forever. They both attended the annual academic award ceremony, and it was customary for all of their friends to go out to eat after to celebrate. Michala was the socialist who seemed to always arrange these outings, and Jon Robert was the quiet, reserved introvert. Michala spotted Jon Robert standing around with their mutual friends and realized he was the only one who was not invited. Michala decided to kindly extend an invite to Jon Robert, and he excitedly responded, “yes!” Since that day, they have talked every day, and eight years later, on June 4, 2022, they finally got married.

It was special because…

We decided to keep our wedding traditional and did not have a “first look” before the ceremony. This caused a lot of nerves, but it was our favorite ceremony moment. We will cherish the moment when the church doors opened, time stood still, and I saw my husband staring back at me with tears of joy—the first day of our forever started at that moment.
