Proposal Story

May 24, 2019

In May 2019, Alexis and Brock ventured off on a nine day trip to visit London and the Amalfi Coast, the seemingly perfect opportunity for a marriage proposal (after a short nine years of dating). While in London, there were many moments Alexis thought Brock would propose but he was keeping her on her toes, and no proposal was made quite yet. By the time they arrived in Positano, Italy, Alexis was unsure if a proposal was even happening- the trip was almost ending, when would he pop the question?! On the second to last day of the trip, Alexis looked outside the window at the ocean and mentioned how cool it would be to go on a boat cruise. Little did she know, Brock had already booked (months in advance) a private sunset cruise for that evening.   Later that day, Alexis and Brock headed out to the beach and met their friendly boat captain namedCossimo. While Alexis went below deck to store her jacket, Brock secretly asked Cossimo to take them to a cove with less traffic. Brock had no idea where Cossimo was taking them, but he trusted this good-natured Italian man would know the right place. As the boat ventured out, Alexis could sense something was up with Brock - he was anxiously holding onto his jacket for dear life. She also was wondering why they hadn’t poured the champagne they had purchased for the boat ride… 
 Cossimo explained that he was taking them somewhere very near and dear to his own heart- his hometown village Fiordo di Furore! Once in the village's quiet cove and past the picturesque rock archway, Brock stood up and took Alexis's hands, telling her the trip was more than just a vacation. Brock proposed, and Alexis said, "Yes!" Afterwards, they popped the champagne and enjoyed the beautiful sunset as Cossimo drove them back to the coast.
