Est. '19

Melanie and Garrett grew up just missing each other throughout their early childhood. Always attending the same church and youth group but never at the same time. They met officially and became good friends their junior/sophomore year which slowly ended up being something promising. Fast forward to 3 years later when Garrett took Melanie to Traverse City, MI where they were going to celebrate her birthday and where he was going to propose to her. The plan was to hit every coffee shop in town and then watch the sunset at Pyramid Point, where he would pop the question! So the day flowed perfectly and all they had left to do was climb the hike. After a long mile of torture they made it to the top and saw that the sun wasn't going to set anywhere where they would see it. Garrett started to freak out and constantly asked Melanie if she preferred to go somewhere else. She was content staying there regardless, because it was still beautiful. He ended the night with a gift full of inside jokes from when they first started dating and then got down on one knee. The joke now is that they don't remember what happened after that. He was smiling too big and talking between his teeth, and she was so ecstatic she couldn't quite understand him. She loved every minute of it and of course said yes. They sat and watched the sky, where the sun somehow managed to set right between two trees. Then they got lost getting home. Dumb seasonal roads.
