The proposal happened on December 23rd 2022. We were frequent visitors of Philadelphia whenever Bryana came up from Baltimore to visit. The evening began at McCormick and Schmicks Seafood and Steak Located in Center City. The city was filled with the Christmas spirit and this being Bryana's favorite holiday, I knew to take advantage of this. After a delicious dinner, the end of the night led us to a street filled with Christmas lights. As we got down the street, not a single car, trashcan or person (so we thought) was in sight. Until Bryana noticed the photographer peeping behind a tree. Once I realized what she saw, I knew the execution of the proposal had to be done right there. I then took myself to one knee and popped the long awaited question. Filled with joy and endless tears, Bryana said yes! Despite it being the coldest night of the year, it couldn't have been more perfect!
