We're Getting Married!

For our 3-year anniversary, Alex surprised me with a trip to my favorite city; Paris. I had no idea it was coming and could not have asked for a better gift. On our second night there, he told me he had special dinner plans and to dress up but wouldn’t tell me where we were going. We took the train, and I kept trying to guess (as you all know how impatient I am), but he just smiled and refused to crack. We ended up at the Trocadéro, with the Eiffel Tower twinkling right behind us. He was oddly specific about where we stood and kept moving us until we were exactly on a spot, and before I could really process what was happening, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said YES (through happy tears) and then he took me to dinner at a the most beautiful restaurant on the Seine. It was truly the most magical night. And one of my favorite details: Inside my engagement ring, he had the coordinates of the exact spot where he proposed engraved. It was so thoughtful, so personal, and so us.
