Nathan and Morgan met at [solidcore], well basically. Morgan was a part-time coach when she met Michelle Funk who took her classes in the evening with Marie and Kristin. One day after class, Michelle asked Morgan if she was single and would she be interested in meeting Michelle's brother-in-law. The first day they started texting, Morgan asked him if he was available that evening to meet up, they met at Clyde’s in Reston for a drink and then they went across the street for a movie, and Nate FELL ASLEEP (to be fair the movie started at 10:30pm)! In September they went on some more awesome dates and on October 10th they made it official, and they both haven’t looked back since!
At the end of April, Nate and Morgan went on their first international trip together to Aruba! They stayed at the beautiful Hilton, had a fantastic time mostly hopping between the beach and the pool. On Tuesday, May 2nd, Nate had told Morgan he had the evening planned and it was a surprise. They spent the morning on a pirate ship, getting too much sun and swinging off ropes into the water. In the evening, Nate wasn't giving Morgan any tips for how to dress. She assumed they were going out to dinner, potentially on the beach, so she wore a dress. But about an hour before they were leaving, Nate said they were going iguana hunting. Morgan was pretty sure he was joking so she stayed in the dress. A driver arrived at the hotel to pick them up and he kept talking about the iguana hunt and Morgan started to freak out that she was wearing the wrong outfit. How do you hunt for an iguana in a dress? However, the driver took them to a port and he ended up being the captain for their private charter sunset cruise. There were 5 courses of the best food, yummy cocktails on demand, and just Nate and Morgan enjoying the time and views together - it was perfect! As the sun was setting, Morgan wanted to take some photos together. They set up the self-timer, and got to the bow of the ship to take photos. Just then, Nate gets down on one knee and proposes. Morgan was nodding the whole time and was saying yes before he even asked her. Once he asked if she would marry him, she of course said yes (again) - it was the most perfect proposal! They Face Timed their immediate family members, and then enjoyed some more food, music, and time together on the ship, just soaking up the moment together! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you!!
