Our love story started exactly where all great modern romances begin — the internet. One day, he saw her post and thought, “Yeah… I need to shoot my shot.” So he slid into her DMs with the perfect opening line (or at least perfect enough that she replied). From there, the conversation took off — memes were exchanged, late-night chats became a thing, and before long it was clear this was more than just casual scrolling. When we finally met in person, it was like our chat thread had just come to life (minus the typos and bad Wi-Fi). He made the first move, and she’s been laughing at his jokes ever since — and now we get to laugh together for the rest of our lives.
Picture this: we had just come back from a cozy dinner at The Walker House. I went to the bathroom like a normal human being, no idea my life was about to completely change. When I came out, there he was — standing in the living room, down on one knee, looking like he had been holding his breath for five minutes straight. I completely froze. My brain just short-circuited. So naturally… I walked away. 🤦♀️ Not because I didn’t want to marry him — I was just in that much shock. After pacing for a few seconds, I turned back around, finally remembered how to speak, and said YES! He was still on one knee the entire time, probably wondering if he should just crawl under the couch. Nervous or not, he totally nailed it — and now we have the funniest “proposal story” to tell forever.
