On January 27, 2023, after seven years together, Austin surprised Chandler with a proposal. The weekend began with laughter, adventure, and a memorable steak dinner, complete with a champagne toast—though no ring appeared just yet. The following day, Austin asked to get ready for photos. Since they hardly ever took them, she couldn’t help but wonder what was coming. They drove to Garden of the Gods, while Chandler was distracted by Austin’s best friend Jason and his son, Reid on FaceTime. When she finally looked up, she found herself at a stable filled with magnificent, towering horses. Together, they rode against a backdrop of breathtaking scenery, fully immersed in the moment. The surprises continued as Austin instructed Chandler to pack for an overnight stay at her favorite hotel in the world: The Broadmoor. Upon arrival, they were whisked to one of the hotel’s most stunning suites, adorned with red roses and a balcony overlooking the serene lake. Across the water, unbeknownst to Chandler, her sister, Emily, arranged rose petals and seven candles at Austin's direction, each representing a year of their journey together since law school. As evening approached, the couple prepared for dinner at one of the city’s finest restaurants. On the way to happy hour at the Hotel Bar, they passed the bar, catching Chandler by surprise—but Austin explained they were just walking Stark a little farther. They headed toward the bridge, iconic for proposals, only to walk past it, leaving her completely dumfounded. Chandler’s attention was soon captured by a more intimate and enchanting setting—a secluded fountain surrounded by petals and candles. There, Austin knelt and shared a heartfelt reflection on their years together, concluding with a proposal. Chandler’s resounding “Yes!” echoed through the moment, accompanied by the gentle clicking. Their noble protector, Stark, had noticed first, prompting Chandler to ask, “What’s that clicking noise?” Then Chandler’s sister leapt from the bushes, camera in hand, to celebrate! It was a beautiful day, and after almost a decade of dating, they would like you to join them for their wedding.
