As Christmas day approached Julio and Bree headed back to New Jersey to celebrate the holidays. On December 23, 2018 the couple ventured into NYC for a fun day of brunching and galavanting throughout the city. After brunch at The Crooked Knife with family and friends they headed towards Rockefeller Center to see all the Christmas spirit. Julio had originally thought to propose at Wagner Cove, but discovered that it had been flooded the night before. Heading into Central Park, daylight was quickly dying, and Julio lead the way towards the iconic Bow Bridge. With a reassuring wink from the photographer, Julio bent the knee and asked for Miss. Eliades' hand in marriage. She said yes! They proceeded in an arranged limousine through Times Square and finally downtown to dinner at Balthazar, where the family of the bride-to-be had come to celebrate. Several months later the couple moved from Washington, D.C. to New York City. This next year they look forward to exploring the big Apple.
