Melissa and Brad were married on CMT's hit show My Big Redneck Wedding 3. They share their story.

Melissa:  This is how our fairytale begins. My friend Shelly came to take me out to the Old South after my daughter Courtney convinced me I needed to get out. I saw the most gorgeous guy who had no interest in anything but pool, but all I was interested in was his tool. After much convincing, we danced -- not knowing he would later be our dd (designated driver) later that night. It was love at first sight. We went home later and I found out what exactly was in his tool box. We are best friends as well as husband and wife and our love grows stronger for each other everyday. I can't imagine a day without each other. Our relationship started out quick and red hot and just keeps getting hotter each day. After many years of waiting, we finally found our soul mates. Like the lyrics of a Rascal Flatts song, "God Bless the broken road that led me straight to you."

Brad:  Well, it was two days before my birthday, when I was at the bar being dd for some friends when Shelly came up to me while I was playing pool to introduce me to Melissa. She asked me to dance but I was playing pool, so I gave in and danced. Then they wanted me to be their dd, so I took my other friends home and I came back to get them and that's when I asked her if I could spend the night. I didn't get to stay at her house that night but we stayed the night at Shelly's, that's my bro's wife. That night ended with blowing kisses goodbye and happiness that I never had before. I love her more than anything and keeps getting better everyday life can't get any better than this.
