We ran across a very popular video on the internet entitled the "Best Wedding Toast Ever" and learned that the bride is Amy Miller Surosky '00 being toasted by her man of honor Mike Kirsch '01.

Lastly, the happy ending here is that Amy was previously a "lost alumna" but now she's "found"! Dreams do come true after all. |
