Picture this: a typical evening on Facebook, scrolling mindlessly until AJ's message interrupts the mundane with the age-old question, "What's for dinner?" Little did Michelle know that his choice of mac and cheese with pork would become the appetizer to their love story. Even though they went to same school, AJ and Michelle have never met so they decided to meet at the good ole local Mcdonalds in Downingtown. They spent the next 4 hours talking about anything and everything. You might think wow! High school sweathearts but no Michelle actually friendzoned Aj for the next 3 years until they started dating my freshman year of college. Who knew that a simple question about dinner could ignite a flame that would light up their lives with love and laughter? Fast forward 13 years later and almost a decade together WE ARE FINALLY GETTING MARRIED!
AJ and Michelle took a trip to Italy in November of 2023. They traveled to Greece and Mexico previously so Michelle didn't think anything was special about this trip. Michelle's sister Sasha was studying abroad in Rome which was the first stop of their Italy adventure. Little did Michelle know AJ and Sasha were planning a proposal. For anyone that knows Michelle, she is a type A traveler. She has an itinerary done and everything mapped out and AJ always just shows up happy as a clam that the plan is done. She got a little suspicious when he said he wanted to take her to a place that wasnt on the list for that day. As they were walking up to Janiculum Hill that overlooks all of Rome, Michelle could tell AJ was nervous. He was trying so hard to space out their walk so that it aligned perfectly with the sunset. With Sasha lurking in the bushes as their photographer, AJ popped the question in one of the most beautiful places in the world and it was the easiest yes she has ever said!
