In true gentlemen's fashion, Jason picked Ariel up and took her to dinner at Red Mesa in St. Petersburg, FL. After dinner, the date continued as Ariel and Jason went to meet Ariel's roommate at a bar in St. Pete. Ariel knew after the first date that Jason was a keeper when she secretly got the approval from her roommate......and the rest was history.
Jason surprised Ariel with a day trip to the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Lakeland, Florida. After spending several hours watching the hot air balloons go "Up Up and Away", they decided to get front row seats to the hot air balloon light show. During the light show, Jason got down on one knee and asked Ariel to marry him. Of course, she said yes!
