We're getting married!

On June 3rd, 2023, Rachel and Patrick were enjoying a round of disc golf at the picturesque Mt. McSauba Disc Golf Course in Charlevoix. When they reached hole 5, the course led them down to a stunning beach on Lake Michigan. Patrick suggested they take a picture with the beautiful lake in the background. Patrick had set up his phone for what Rachel thought was a timed photo, but was actually a video. As they stood knee-deep in the water, posing for what Rachel thought was just a photo, Patrick suddenly stopped her from getting out of the water. After he shared some kind words with Rachel, he pulled out a ring and knelt down in the waist-deep water. There, surrounded by the natural beauty of the lake and the warmth of their shared moment, Patrick asked Rachel to marry him.
