It started back in September 2015 when Emily was living with her mother in Rockland, waiting tables and nannying while finishing up her degree at UMaine. If you think that sounds bad, picture Jonathan living in the middle of nowhere-ville Maine spending his time working, sprucing up Toad (his beloved boat), and looking forward to his daily human interaction at the local CrossFit Gym. Both had had their share of dating and were looking for the real deal, so naturally like any millennial, they turned to Tinder. As luck would have it Emily and Jonathan were shallow enough to swipe right on each others pictures and were a match. Emily stepped up and messaged Jonathan first and the rest was history. The early days of their relationship were spent by Emily explaining modern day pop culture and if Netflix was a website or an app to Jonathan. It wasn’t long before Jonathan was saying things were “Lit Fam" and knew who Fetty Wap was. Luckily for Emily, Jonathan knew how to keep a budget and when it was time to get an oil change. Fast forward two years, a house, and two golden retrievers later and you know what's coming next. If you're surprised Jonathan popped the question on a boat, you don't know him very well. If you're surprised Emily didn't see it coming...you're not alone. Using a trick as old as time, Jonathan convinced Emily that on a Saturday night in September they would be having dinner with his new boss in Portland, but first had to troubleshoot some mysterious bubbles coming from the engines of BagBoy. With the boat sitting still and Emily looking down at the engines, Jonathan snuck up behind her, dropped to one knee and popped the question. Without hesitation or a second thought Emily jubilantly cried out "YES" in the middle of Casco Bay. 20 Snapchats and Instagram posts later they were tied up to the dock and making their way to a surprise engagement party a Ri-Ra's.
