We met on Catholic Match and it did not disappoint! After encouragement from family and friends, we each decided to take a chance and created an account. In addition to her faith, he was attracted to her long hair and Colombian T-shirt while she was attracted to his amazing smile and buñuelos.

The proposal took place the Friday before our 1st year Anniversary, February 14th. Thinking we could not celebrate the 14th due to work, Cristian used this as a decoy to plan the proposal. It started off with a private opening of La Note Italian restaurant with dancing, food, and laughs. At the end of the dinner, our favorite song played and he asked me to dance. As tears gently rolled down, he reached into his coat for some tissue when instead he grabbed the ring. Kneeling down and asking me to marry him, I said yes! The night continues with a surprise betrothal ceremony where family and friends were awaiting for us at the Church. There, we signed on the altar of Mary to promise to be true to each other in purity and faith until the wedding. Lastly, the after-party took place at the Canaveral house complete with catered food and Mariachi to celebrate our engagement!
