Ved and I went up to Panther creek in February and I had made an off comment about how this place would be the perfect spot for a proposal. We had been going around the PNW on a ton of hikes during the winter which was a blast for us aswell as Benji. On our second trip up he wanted to leave our pup so we could explore the falls a little more. I kept stopping to take pictures of the nature and Ved, and he kept rushing me to get to the bottom. We passed a couple on their way back up from the falls and they let us know how amazing the view was. We passed Aunt Leyena and Sasha without knowing. We got to the bottom looked up at the scenery and that’s when Ved dropped to one knee and asked if I would be his wife. I was NOT expecting it at all!! That’s when I noticed everyone pop out of the tree line. He spoke with my mom ahead of time to get her blessing along with a ticket to come visit post proposal.
