Just a classic we met at a dive bar and fell in love story! Brittani was out celebrating her birthday with her friend Reilly, and decided to go out for one more drink at Occidental, where Kevin was out celebrating his friend's birthday, enjoying drinks post Avalanche game. KOB's dedication to push through the crowd, charming smile, some encouragement from Reilly and a quite a few Coors Light bottles later, and Brittani and Kevin were the last two standing in the bar that night. While Kevin says he knew that night he'd found the one, it was clear to them both after a few thoughtfully planned dates by Kev, some delicious dinners made by Brittani, and lots of witty texts and long convos that they had met their matches!
We headed to Saugatuck, Michigan to enjoy Labor Day weekend with the O'Brien family at their vacation home. After spending the day together on the beach, and relaxing, we headed to what Brittani thought was a dinner out in town to celebrate Kevin's birthday early. Kevin had planned a pit stop at The Red Dock "to pick up something per Kevin's mom's request." Once we got to the end of the dock, Kevin dropped to one knee completely surprising Brittani not only with a sunset proposal, but both sides of our families running down the dock to celebrate with champagne and lots of happy tears. Kevin succeeded with a very thoughtful and well planned out proposal and celebratory weekend, and not dropping the ring through the dock planks!
