We can't wait to celebrate with you!

We met on an app in September 2017. Our first date was scheduled for a Tuesday, but Pavel cancelled because he was busy at work. Lucky for Erin, he rescheduled for that Friday instead. We met at a speakeasy in downtown Manhattan, and ordered herbacious cocktails and chatted for hours. We knew pretty quickly that it was a done deal--okay, maybe Erin knew earlier than Pavel. But by the third date, he was hooked because she brought him his favorite movie candy (kit-kats). Now we're getting married!

Pavel took Erin to Compo Beach in Westport, CT, where Erin's parents were married. It was the morning, and we brought coffee and bagels and a picnic blanket. We sat on the beach and talked, and since it was right around our 3 year anniversary, we spent time reminiscing about about our relationship, all of the memories we'd made together, and all of our future plans. Pavel brought a scrapbook that he spent early morning hours before Erin woke up crafting, that showcased so many beautiful mementos from over the years we spent together. Already crying, Erin started sobbing when she noticed that the final page held the ring box. Before she knew it, Pavel was down on one knee proposing! Although Erin forgot to say yes because she was so excited, it was most definitely non-verbally expressed.
