Our Love Story
Mark and Kara met back in June 2012 after working together at HMS Collingwood, although Mark had eyes for Kara from the start it took a while for her to fall for his good looks and charms lol Now 12 years on from their first date they are still as much in love today as they were at the start. Before they knew it, weeks rolled into months, then months rolled into years. In 2019, Mark got down on one knee… Kara said yes!
