Danielle and Paige's first date was in Baltimore, where Paige was in medical school. They went to Barcocina and had appetizers next to the water. They had an instant connection and the conversation was easy! Danielle was so anxious, that she forgot her keys at the restaurant and couldn't find them for over an hour. Unfortunately for Paige, she was on her surgery rotation and would have to wake up at 4 am the next day, so Danielle ordered her an Uber while her search for her keys continued. Little did they know, keys would become a tradition for the two of them; as they place locks on bridges in every city they visit. The rest was history! Paige and Danielle have taken advantage of every second they both have to travel the world, eat at incredible restaurants, spend time with family, hike with their dogs Jackson and Penny, and make their house a home.
Paige proposed first in West Maui! She brought Danielle to a surprise outdoor couples massage and spa first, then she led her to a jungle where she got down on one knee in front of a large, stunning tree to pop the question! The photographer was hiding behind a different tree to capture the moment. Paige then led Danielle to a cliff's edge along the water where a blanket, pillows and their favorite white wine (Moscato) was waiting for them. Paige made Danielle a slideshow video with tons of pictures of the two of them (and Jackson and Penny, of course) and cameos of two of her favorite celebrities asking her to say yes! One of the celebrities in the video was Jake Scott, the singer of their favorite song, "Tuesdays." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWxb3tD-zzM&t=1s Danielle started her proposal with their favorite nerdy date night activity, an escape room! The final clue of the escape room had a QR code leading Paige to a personalized website with password-protected video clues from Danielle's mom and Paige's parents and brother. Paige searched each location that the video clues led her to for items that represented inside jokes the two share, and those items gave her the passwords to open more videos. Danielle then proposed on a natural coral pier when the sun was setting on one side and the moon was rising on the other. Their favorite quote from the song Tuesdays was framed at the proposal spot. www.MauiMeQuest.com (passwords: 2424; peanutmonkey; nutella; vodkasauce) It's obvious that Danielle and Paige are soul mates - two of the locations Danielle picked for her scavenger hunt were right next to the tree and cliff from Paige's proposal. They also incorporated the same song, Tuesdays, into their proposals!
