It all started with a swipe! We matched each other on OKCupid. Brian Koporc made the first move, messaging Anastasia Fete on December 18, 2019, though it did take another nudge on December 22 for her to finally respond.
Every year, we carve pumpkins together during Trick or Treat time. On October 30, 2021, we carved our pumpkins as usual, despite the downpour which limited the number of trick-or-treaters. Afterwards, Brian wanted to light the pumpkins and take a picture. When Anastasia went to put the candle in the pumpkin, she found a Legend of Zelda ring box inside! Brian said some very sweet words, then got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. Her response was not yes, instead, it was a resounding "Of course I'll marry you!". Immediately after, she produced a ring which she had been carrying with her for months, counterproposing right back to Brian.
