5 years ago we took our very first traveling adventure together and visited Oahu, HI. It was a beautiful and magical experience where we spent a lot of time hiking, zip lining, horseback riding, exploring, snorkeling, and getting to know each other. I knew I wanted the proposal to be somewhere special and what better place than to take it back to where it all started...in Hawaii. After much thought, I decided the perfect spot to propose would be at the Hoʻomaluhia Botanical Garden entrance to get a beautiful back drop. They no longer allow people to stop and take pictures here, but after a little begging and pleading the park ranger at the front, he allowed it. I pretended that we were only going to be taking a quick picture for the background, but then I got down on one knee and well...as they say...the rest is history. We're so excited to celebrate the next chapter of our lives with you! See you in Fredericksburg!
