We're excited to celebrate with you!

Since we have a lot of mutual friends, we both knew of each other, but had never paid attention to each other. After a while, we all started hanging out and quickly caught each other's attention. Even though we were quickly realizing each other, we were both slightly annoyed with each other as well. Somehow, we started texting, hanging out more, and eventually began dating! Fast forward to December of 2020, we got engaged!

Natalia loves coffee, so when I found an opportunity to reserve a private coffee shop experience in San Luis Obispo, I jumped at the opportunity. I used my birthday weekend as the perfect excuse. I told her we'd go check out this coffee shop and learn about the history of coffee, learn to make latte art, etc. The experience lasted for a few hours, and at the end, they set 2 coffee cups down. One read "lets get coffee together" and the other said "for the rest of our lives." Her coffee had latte art that said "marry me" - took her totally by surprise. You can see some of the pictures from the proposal in our gallery!

I wish I could say I saw it coming, but I didn't! Aaron had told me that we were just going on a date/ birthday trip for him, so I thought nothing of it. After spending the day at the coast, I was told about our last stop--a coffee shop with a dinner. Little did I know it was more than just dinner! After learning the basics of latte art, coffee types, and even food, a coffee cup was placed in front of me. Across the top read: "Marry Me?" Of course, I said yes, and here we are!
