It was around 6:30 a.m. and we both were headed to the kitchen for some coffee at our friend's vacation rental house in the Florida Keys. He said good morning, I smiled at him and he was mesmerized by my smile right away. Little did he know I'm almost blind without my glasses. A couple of days later, after we got to know each other a bit, we went off to explore the Keys together and our love story started.
Two years after we first met, we returned to the Florida Keys. This time, we brought more friends and family with us. On our first night there, we had a big group dinner at the house where we first met and we planned to take a group photo around sunset on the dock. After the big group photo was done, we split up into smaller groups. My family was up first, then it was Johnny's and my turn. When I turned around, he was on one knee asking me to marry him. I was so surprised, ecstatic and happy, and of course, I said YES! I had no idea that he'd been planning to propose to me for almost a year. Johnny is still amazed that I had no clue and he was able to surprise me because so many little things didn't go as planned. It was wonderful to share that moment with family and friends! Now we're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you!
