Kelly & Jason went to high school together from freshman year, but became friends sophomore year when Jason sat behind Kelly in English class. They were both in ski club, and became close friends, even getting to know each others' families. After graduation, Jason went to Salisbury University, and Kelly attended Coastal Carolina University. They saw each other, along with other mutual friends, almost every break. After they both obtained their bachelor's degrees, both moved back to the DMV. January 10, 2015 One chilly winter night, they were visiting friends in Baltimore, when Jason kissed Kelly. From that moment on, they became almost inseparable. Jason completed his master's degree and they moved to NYC together.

This story begins long before Jason got a grass stain on his knee, but not until after Jason had flown from NYC to Louisiana and back, in one day, to ask Mr. Chaze permission for his daughter's hand. After that first simple task, Jason knew all he had to do next was come up with a plan to get Kelly 1) Dressed up, 2) To the proposal location, and 3) Surprised. So, Jason told Kelly that on May 18, 2019, there would be a surprise birthday party for his father, at their yacht club. The yacht club is conveniently located only a few miles away from a personal landmark; Talisman Farm, where Kelly lived as a child. This "birthday party" is an excuse to get the couple dressed up for the secret agent photographer, and give them a reason to drive down from NYC to MD for the weekend without Kelly making any other plans. Jason's mother even mailed a fake invitation to Kelly & Jason's apartment. That warm, sunny day in May, K&J were singing along to the radio in Chesapeake Bay Bridge traffic, on their way to the "surprise birthday party", when Mrs. Rogewitz called, exclaiming that "Dad is early, don't come right now, if he sees you in the parking, it will give it away, go somewhere else first!". Off to Talisman Farm. They walk to the edge of the bamboo, by a still pond, where Jason seems too distracted to listen to Kelly's childhood memories. Jason delivers the sweetest speech angels have ever heard. He gets on one knee. "Will you marry me?" Kelly said YES. She cries. They both cry. You are crying right now. The bushes start to move, and out pops a photographer. They took pictures all over Kelly's old farm (seen on this site & your save the date card). Afterward, the newly engaged couple sparkle over to Fisherman's Inn Restaurant on Kent Island, where the parents and siblings of both clapped as the couple entered, champagne and lunch waiting. The day sunset over the Chesapeake Bay, filled with more love, laughter, and champagne on the docks of Fisherman's Crab Deck.
