How We Met
When the classic “Our parents set us up” scenario actually panned out! We talked for a week and a half before being able to meet. Once we did, we both knew it was a rest of our lives kind of deal.
The Proposal
We went on a weekend trip to Vermont. He took me to a really nice dinner along the river and after we took a walk down along side it. He explained to me that this place had significance in his life, that him and his friends would walk up and down this river. Once I turned back around from looking up the river, he was down on one knee and photographers were flashing cameras. True hallmark movie moment.
