Krista and Paul both attended Michigan Technological University but did not cross paths until after they graduated and were living in the Ann Arbor, Michigan area. They met via mutual friends and connected shortly thereafter. Paul impressed Krista with his culinary abilities which would later blossom into a mutual love for cooking.
Paul took Krista and their two dogs up to Craggy Gardens, one of Krista's favorite spots in North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains. The drive up the mountain was an adventure in itself due to zero visibility but for obvious reasons, Paul was persistent and we arrived to the gardens safe and sound. Paul got down on one knee and not even a minute after Krista said yes, rain started to pour down! Thankfully, the skies cleared the next day so we were able to go back and capture our exciting news!
