Jake and I had plans to attend a small concert in Birmingham on Saturday, May 18, 2019, but Jake had other plans. I had to work that morning, and Jake had our friends send out a group message about meeting up for a drink before the concert. When I came home I took my sweet time getting ready for the concert. Jake looked a little overdressed for a concert, but I just brushed it off. He seemed like he was in a hurry and started trying to pick out my outfit because I was not in a hurry at all! Still, I did not pick up on any of the little things that now seem so obvious that something else was going on. We finally left for Birmingham to "meet our friends for a drink" at the Elyton Hotel. Little did I know that Jake had rented out the rooftop of the Elyton Hotel complete with rose petals, snacks and drinks. Jake popped the question on the rooftop, and my immediate reaction was "are you serious?!". Immediately after all of our friends and family met us on the rooftop to celebrate.
