It all started when we both swiped right on the infamous jewish dating app JSwipe back in October 2016. Little did we both know that a first date at a Timeflies concert was pure fate and surprisingly a good spot to meet for the first time. Fast forward many dates ahead and 3 years later, you have the future Mr. and Mrs. Heckelman!
Many months of planning for the big Israel/Greece trip had come to an end and the trip was finally here. One week in Israel down, a few relaxing days in Mykonos to go before back to reality. They spent their first full day lounging on the beach, enjoying the view. Little did Jamie know that Josh was scoping the scene for his grand gesture. The two had planned to take sunset pictures that night before eating dinner, so they got all dolled up and headed to the beach. Luckily there were a few stragglers on the beach, hopefully willing to join in on Josh’s plan. They found a random man and asked him to take their picture and as Jamie headed to the water to get settled, Josh whispered the plan in the man’s ear. Unfortunately the man was foreign and didn’t necessarily understand, so Josh’s plan was potentially unfolding; he could only hope for the best. A few moments pass by as pictures were taken, but the first round “was not good enough” so Josh asked for one more round. As the pictures continued, Josh reached for his pocket. Immediate shock and joy emmerged from Jamie’s face, of course resulting in water works. Josh asked the million dollar question, got his magical answer, and they lived happily ever after!
