It all began with a Facebook message… In July of 2021, Nathan reached out to Emily, but it wasn't until six months later that Emily responded. One morning, she woke up and remembered the message, feeling a mix of hesitation and embarrassment for the long delay. Despite the time that had passed, she decided to reply. From their very first date, it was clear they had found something special in each other. One of their shared passions is travel, and within their first year of dating, they explored the beauty of Spain and Portugal together—a trip that truly tested their connection and set the stage for everything that followed. In 2023, they took the next big step and moved in together, shortly followed by the addition of a furry family member, Mabel. Then, in August of 2024, they embarked on another adventure—this time to Nice, France. Just a day into their trip, Nathan had arranged for a professional photographer, hoping to capture a one-of-a-kind experience in France. But within moments of the shoot beginning, he surprised Emily by getting down on one knee and proposing, marking the beginning of the next chapter in their journey together.
