the magic begins...

She remembers: his metal t-shirt, warm smile, and welcoming, kind soul. We spent the entire night talking about our favorite obscure bands, which sold me right away. We bar hopped around Corktown and it all ended with a late-night first kiss. Meeting Matt felt like coming home. He remembers: how beautiful she looked when she walked through the door, kissing her at UFO Factory at last call, and thinking he was underdressed! (he wasn't)

He proposed at the tippy-top of Douglass Falls in the Keweenaw Peninsula (pictured above), our favorite place on earth. We spent the week of our engagement tucked away in the woods, camping, hiking, and (literally) getting caught in the rain. It was pure magic.
