We met at Boston College Band Camp, but it wasn't as corny as it sounds. He led the Drum Corps and I was on the Dance Team. Naturally, our favorite movie to binge together was the Nick Cannon classic Drumline. Although we started off just friends, we quickly realized there was something more.

After a week of consistently blowing off our dinner plans, I agreed to meet at our favorite restaurant El Vez. Reluctantly, I followed Chris to Brookfield Place Plaza to take a photo for what he described as a "goal-oriented work assignment." I looked down at the photo on his phone, looked back up, and he was on one knee! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you.
