We met at St. Joseph Catholic School in pre-k and were quickly best friends. There wasn't much we didn't do together back then. Around middle school we both left St. Joes and went our separate ways. Growing up on opposite sides of town we tried to keep in touch occasionally, but for the most part we were pretty busy with our own lives, and growing up. Until Michael reached out to Abigail after college, asking her to hang out at a brewery. Abigail was excited to have a few beers with an old friend and reminisce about the good ole days. Who knew the new good ole days were just getting started?

Michael and Abigail love their walks at Robinsons Preserve in Bradenton, FL where they often go to talk about everything under the sun especially their dreams and ideas for the future. Michael knew it was the perfect place for them to kick off their future together. He coordinated everything seamlessly, the ring, a photographer, a family gathering at his parent's house for afterwards, and even a new outfit for Abigail. Michael got on his knee on top of the highest hill in the preserve with the most beautiful view. Abigail didn't suspect a thing and all she could say in that moment was YES!
