We met while out with some friends and didn't think much of it. We laughed and talked about everything, and nothing while we shared a few drinks. Before parting ways Ben asked for my number and the rest, as they say, was history! We became inseparable from day 1 and this exciting summer romance quickly blossomed into a beautiful life shared by two best friends.

As a lover of the ocean and adventure, Ben proposed we make our way to the Newport Aquarium in Kentucky. After driving for five and a half hours Ben and I had made it to the aquarium. It was a day like any other - the two of us laughing and having fun. Once we reached the shark tunnel and gazed upon the beauties of the sea Ben got down on one knee and asked me for my hand. I cried and shouted 'YES' and just like that we were engaged! We are excited for the next chapter of our lives and look forward to sharing the big day with you. See you in Cortona!
