The Proposal

Dec 5, 2020

Katie's suspicions were growing, until she saw Ben put on his band t-shirt. Nope. The proposal must not be happening today. She didn't know that Ben put on the most obnoxious t-shirt he could find, because he thought she was onto his plans 😉 They met friends at an escape room. Katie was so focused on following the clues that she didn't notice how the game master kept giving them hints. One of the last puzzles included a picture frame that opened to reveal a key to a chest. When she opened the chest, there were rose petals, a note, and a box inside. Looking back on the proposal moment, Katie said, "At first, I was taken off guard trying to think what this had to do with the puzzle before it clicked and I had to will myself not to cry! Ben helped me take the box out of the chest and the letter. I read it and it had a code to a lock combination on it, which I was so emotional I completely missed until Ben had to point it out to me as I stood staring at the box and the note. Inside were more rose petals, pictures from our relationship, and the ring box." Ben popped the question, but those were the only words he was able to get out at the time. In Ben's words, his brain “completely emptied when she opened the box." Katie of course said yes, and now these two are planning a backyard wedding this fall ❤️ Photo credit: @chelseyjoyphotography
