Oakley and Will met for the first time after a volleyball match Oakley's freshman year. Then a "short" two years later, they reconnected and went on their first date to play with puppies and eat some Pub Subs and ice cream. This was when Oakley knew it was real - I mean puppies AND food on the first date?? He really knows the way to a girl's heart. Shortly after came his campaign to change her address and last name.
It all started with a trip to Atlanta to visit Will's family. Or so she thought. On Saturday morning, they went to the Peach Bowl game between Michigan and Florida. The two left the game early to ride some Bird scooters around Atlanta and to get THE Mad Italian aka the best philly cheese steaks south of Philly. Oakley and Will then got ready for the Christmas and New Years decorated Botanical Gardens to see all the lights and have some fun. During one of the light shows to music, Oakley turned around to see her future husband on one knee and poppin' the big question. Truly a moment to remember.
