We met through a mutual friend and bonded over our love of waffles, Parks n Rec, & adventures. After a year of friendship and adventures, we started our relationship (on an IHOP date, naturally). The next two years we fell in love and our adventures continued with many more IHOP dates, national parks, a spontaneous trip to Utah, adopting an insane (& adorable) puppy, weekend road trips and another moving in together.

After (multiple) fake proposals and a trip to Forks, WA, Justin decided to casually mention to friends that he was going to propose that day, in 20 minutes actually. Kaitlyn had no idea since he had been fake proposing since December. At Lake Crescent, Kaitlyn's favorite place, Justin got down on one knee and tied his shoe, before actually proposing to her at the dock at sunset. Kaitlyn yelled, "I love you but you suck," and accepted his proposal.
