Our love story started out on Bumble. We both swiped right! Mike and I went on our first official date in October. We had dinner and we chatted and laughed over a few drinks. I decided to tell him—“I don’t kiss on first dates”. Needless to say, that completely threw him off … we awkwardly hugged goodbye. To my surprise he asked me out on a second date and I had such an amazing time with him that he even got a kiss from me! After that I knew he was a keeper and asked him out! --- the rest is history! xx

For Christmas this year Mike gifted me a trip to Skytop, a little stay-cation for us both in the Poconos. The day of our trip finally came and we spent the day venturing around the resort. We woke up Saturday morning and he told me we were going to a brunch, so I should dress up. We head down to grab a drink before the festivities and he said to me, “ let’s go see the observatory and spa before we head over to the brunch” I said “sure!” because I didn’t want to pass up on the views from the observatory. When we got up there I was taking pictures and noticed another gentleman up there doing the same ( I thought nothing of it!) I was trying to get the best angles because the view is breathtaking. Mike told me to take a picture of the lake, so I did and when I turned around to show him the picture, he was on one knee! And the “gentlemen” was our photographer! He captured the most magical moment of my life! Mike then surprised me AGAIN with a hike and an afternoon filled with a beautiful engagement photo shoot! And it didn’t stop there, he took me to our private cottage where I was greeted with rose petals, champagne, and cheese! Needless to say … my emotions were everywhere. I could not believe that my fairytale came true and that I found my person. To top it all off- we came home on Sunday and Mike had planned a surprise engagement party with all our family and friends! I always dreamed of a proposal like this, of a man like him to share my life with and I still can’t believe that it even happened! Our hearts are so full! Mike and I can’t wait to celebrate with all of you as we OFFICIALLY become The Grazioso's!
