Katie and Andy met through a mutual friend while she was stopping in Tucson on her cross-country drive from Florida back to school in California. They hit it off and Katie gave him her number. From then on they talked every day. Katie still had another year left of college in Southern California so once a month they would go back and forth and visit each other on the weekends. After graduation Katie moved to Tucson and they got their first apartment together.
Katie and Andy had planned a weekend trip to Phoenix. Andy planned everything out. He booked them a hotel in Scottsdale, ordered a bottle of champagne, got down on one knee and proposed.
