We met at our company holiday party at the Citrus Club in 2018. Throughout the evening, we talked and got to know each other. It wasn't actually until the following year that we went out on our first date at Disney Springs after reconnecting again at the holiday party. It was the best first date both of us have ever had and since then we have been inseparable.
Joe booked a reservation at my favorite restaurant on the top floor of the Four Seasons Resort for our 5 year anniversary. As we walked to dinner between two long rows of trees wrapped in thousands of white lights that glowed all around us, we approached a photographer (arranged by Joe) who offered to take a complimentary picture of us. While we posed, Joe took my hands and turned me towards him. He began to say the most romantic things to me, and I thought he was just being extra sweet for our anniversary. Although after a few minutes, he took a box out of his pocket and dropped to a knee. As I stood in absolute complete shock and surprise, he asked me to marry him. And with happy tears in my eyes, I said "of course!". He created the most magical and special moment that we will forever cherish :)
