It's a pretty typical love story. Girl gets dragged out on New Year's Eve by friends. Fate brings boy into the same restaurant... (Okay, it wasn't just fate. It was mostly their mutual friend, Antone, who coincidentally brought the couple together)... Girl instantly crushes on boy, who is much too humble to realize it. Girl gets boy's phone number, sends the first text... And the rest is history! A little background: Shelby and Justin attended the same high school and college, and even shared mutual friends. Shelby also became friends with Justin's sister, Jessica, when they attended SRJC together. But while the couple "knew of" each other while attending school (everybody "knows" everybody at Healdsburg High), they didn't officially meet until years later when their friends got together on New Year's Eve! They say timing is everything!
It was at Taft Point in beautiful Yosemite that Justin got down on one knee and asked Shelby to marry him. Needless to say, she said yes! [See photo below]
