Bill Adkison and Meg Meyer went on a very memorable first date. “We went to Millennium Park in Chicago and got to talking, and before we knew it, it was past the park’s curfew—which we didn’t even know about,” Meg says. “We found out when a cop pulled up to us, lights blaring, and yelled at us. We almost got arrested!” Instead,
they got a great story, although they refer to their second date, a Cardinals game, as the real start of their relationship. Meg and Billy met when he became her personal trainer, and then her dad’s. “When we first met, we were both in relationships, but became friends,” Meg says. “He got to know my dad really well before we even got started. In fact, it was my dad who pushed us to start dating once we were both single!” Billy proposed by creating a custom prom at the campus of Meg’s alma mater, John F. Kennedy High School. “We used to joke that we wished we’d known each other back then,” she says. “He made it so we could be prom king and queen, and he proposed with a gorgeous custom ring under twinkle lights and a disco ball!” Afterward, the surprise continued with the happy couple celebrating at a party with all their friends and family. Meg owns Meka Boutique in Chesterfield—fashion experience that led her to a special gown. “My mom, aunt and some friends went to New York with me to Kleinfeld Bridal, and gown designer Pnina Tornai was there. We ended up getting one of the only two dresses I tried, even though I had already put a down payment on a dress a few weeks before!” she says. A Sept. 15 wedding is planned. “I’m looking forward to moving in together after the wedding. We just bought the home we will start our lives in!”
