How We Met

Online Dating Gets One Right!!

Brittany's Perspective: Spent the last five years saying, "I don't know", "It's not for me", "I'm not ready". However, I finally took a deep breath and created a profile on Bumble. Within a few days of swiping, I came across this guy named Matthew. He was really cute, had pictures of himself outdoors, and genuinely looked like a nice guy. Swiped Right and we matched! Bumble sets up the app where the girls have to start the conversation, so I went back and forth on the right "opening line". Decided on asking about his favorite hike. He responded quickly, and I replied back. Then nothing. No response for a few days. I wasn't going to let this one get away, so I reached out one more time. He replied! And the conversation has been going on ever since.

The Proposal

The Perfect Surprise

Brittany's Perspective: Just a fun, relaxing family weekend to the cabin... or so I thought. Little did I know, Matthew had planned to completely surprise me with the sweetest proposal. Best part, I missed every sign! Weeks before, he had to go "meet a buddy for lunch"; AKA pick out the ring. He wouldn't let me access his phone the whole drive to Pinetop; hiding the group message plan. At the cabin, everyone slowly disappeared; didn't know they were changing & getting things in place. After giving him a hard time for not proposing, I didn't realize I was minutes away from one of the happiest moments of my life. He tricked me into sitting on the porch swing so I would have the perfect view of the surprise: the dads holding Our Blanket, little sister with roses, Matthew's mom taking pictures, my mom holding the balloons, and Jason recording with the drone. Next thing I know, he's down on one knee with the biggest smile, "Will you marry me?". "ABSOLUTELY!"
