After arriving at her first boot camp exercise class, Malu Tungol took one look at Shannon Ashmon and thought, “I really hope he’s not the instructor.”

“He was too cute,” the bride, a behavioral scientist, reveals. “The last thing I wanted was for a first impression to include me embarrassing myself by struggling through his workout in the blazing Atlanta heat.” But Shannon was the instructor – and he noticed Malu immediately. He began chatting with Malu after class and calling her to ask how she was adjusting to the program. Very soon, the two were dating. “We tried to keep our burgeoning romance under wraps from the rest of the boot camp class,” Malu says. “We didn’t really fool anyone, though.”

Michelle Berta and Louis Matthews had the same idea on their first day of law school at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville: They both went to the pool in their apartment complex with their books in hand, intending to study.

After gaining permission, Louis took Michelle to a romantic dinner at their favorite restaurant and out for an evening of dancing, then finally to the historic Rotunda at the University of Virginia campus, where he popped the question.

Pete Diederich was visiting Las Vegas for a bowling tournament in 2008 when he first saw Sara Vausbinder, who was also competing at the tournament. Although he felt drained after a night of partying, he says he instantly knew that he needed to talk to this woman. “She just had the brightest smile I’d ever seen in my life,” he remembers. They hit it off immediately, and since they both lived in southern California, continued seeing each other after returning home from the tournament. In fact, the couple began working together in 2011 – Sara is currently the Hollywood and Ventura County director of RAW: natural born artists, an international organization that aims to give artists resources and exposure in the first 10 years of their career, and Pete is a RAW videographer.

The night that Rorie Wach and Adam Miller first met, Adam had to literally break the ice to start a conversation. It was April 2009, and Rorie and Adam were both guests at a party hosted by a mutual friend. Rorie says she was attracted to Adam from the moment she first saw him, and even remembers the exact outfit he was wearing that day: plaid pants, a black v-neck t-shirt, and white Converse sneakers. He was “the cutest guy in the room,” she gushes.
