How we met

The first time Mike and I talked was actually on a dating app, Bumble to be specific. As shallow as it was, I was attracted to the tall and muscular guy I saw in the photos and knew I wanted to get to know him more. But what I didn't know was how quickly we would hit it off. After less than 2 weeks of talking Mike and I met in person for the very first time. It was probably the easiest conversation I've had on a first date- fun and flirty, AND he checked off multiple of "my boxes" right away. The more time we spent together, the stronger our connection grew... and now here we are, engaged!

The Proposal

7.19.19

Mike and I had Acadia National Park on our bucket list since the very beginning. This past summer, Mike and I decided to camp in Acadia National Park with my parents. Little to my knowledge, Mike had spoken to them beforehand about his big plan. At some point, in the beginning of the trip, we decided to part ways from my parents to go explore the island a bit more. We ended up stopping at Schooner Head Overlook, where a winding, beaten path led to a rocky headland overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. After we took in the gorgeous view, I started to turn to leave when Mike grabbed my hand and got down on one knee. I think my response was "what are you doing?" After what seemed like hours, Mike finally choked up the big question, to which I replied YES... and we were engaged! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter of our lives with you!
