We met at a showcase in college, but Ryan doesn't remember, so we pretend it never happened. (Liz will always remember) Fast forward 6 years, we were both single. Ryan was already on the dating app "Coffee Meets Bagel", and Liz decided it was time to start dating again and hopped on the dating app bandwagon. The universe must have wanted us to be a thing, because we matched shortly after, and the rest is history!

When Ryan & Liz first started dating, Liz showed Ryan her favorite spot - a dock overlooking Lake Washington near Mount Baker. Ryan knew he wanted to propose to Liz here, but the universe had other plans. The road leading to the dock on Lake Washington Blvd was closed for Sea Fair Weekend. Luckily, Ryan recruited a few friends for the engagement and they were able to find another beautiful spot close by. Ryan picked up Liz from work on the sunny Friday afternoon and took her out to dinner. He needed to stall while Ryan's friends scoped out a new proposal spot, so they took a fun trip to Earl's on the Ave before heading onto the "scenic route" home. On the way home, Ryan stops the car and suggests taking a walk. (Liz now knows something is definitely fishy!) They walk to the "spot", Ryan rambles for a few minutes out of complete nervousness, and unable to wait any longer - asks Liz to marry him. Liz says "yes!" but not before saying "what are my options?" in true Liz fashion.
