“This day brought everything full circle for me. God has showed up in such a big way in our lives. I did not know that this is what love felt like,”

“After everything we both had been through, we didn’t know it was possible. We are both grateful for our past because it let us to each other, made us grow through some of the darkest times and prepared us for this relationship and a lifetime of love and partnership.”
Cortney Hendrix’s relationship
The couple started dating about one year back. Six months before he started this relationship with Cortney, Sherm, 29 who is an accountant had divorced his wife.
Cortney also had a previous marriage to Jason Carrion who is now married to CBB ‘s Roxanne Pellet. Hence though they were dating, both were skeptical and not ready to go to the next level in their relationship.
Sherm told:
“Early on in our relationship, Cortney and I would stay up into the early hours of the morning talking and connecting on so many levels. I didn’t envision having serious talks about my future with another woman any time soon, but here I was,”
He continued:
“I hadn’t ever enjoyed being with someone as much as I enjoy being with Cortney, and I knew this is how a marriage should be.”
The prospective son-in-law took the blessings of Cortney’s parents in December. Since then, he started seriously working on the design for the engagement ring.
Cortney Hendrix’s engagement ring
Sherm specially designed the ring for the special day. Talking about it, he said:
“Cortney had mentioned she liked emerald-cut diamond rings, which are not exactly in style right now. I wanted to give her the ring she wanted, and wanted it to be timeless, unique and as complex as the late-night talks we have,”
About his proposal plans, Sherm revealed:
“I planned a trip up to Boone, North Carolina, and had planned to propose in the mountains. As the date got closer, I sensed Cortney was anticipating my proposal … [so] I changed my original plan,”
He proposed to her in the hotel room they were staying in. Sherm said:
“I asked her to pour us some wine, and she grabbed the glasses without noticing the ring and turned around to me on one knee with a ring pop. She always said I could propose with a ring pop and that would be enough! She laughed and asked ‘Is this for real?’ I grabbed the wine glass while on a knee and handed it to her, and she noticed it this time and said ‘Yes!’”
Praising Cortney and her commitment, he said:
“I couldn’t be happier or more excited to marry Cortney and start a family of our own.”
