Proposal story

I asked him

About a day before I ordered the ring and had waited what felt like forever for it to get delivered. I had asked both of his lovely parents for permission to keep their son in my life forever as long as he said yes. Nate is one of the kindest most genuine humans I have ever met. I knew from the first time we hung out that he was a person I wasn’t going to let go. I had a whole plan on how I was going to ask him that had promptly went out the window when the nerves sank in. So I decided a motorcycle ride to the beach right at sunset was the best alternative. My carefully prepared speech also went out the window (I understand why it is so nerve wracking for guys to pop the question). Long story short he agreed and was relieved he didn’t have to pick out my ring alone. He was also shocked that his dad had kept a secret for a few weeks. I couldn’t be happier to call this man my husband and be apart of his amazing family.
