We met at Wofford College on Homecoming weekend during a party thrown by John's Fraternity.

This past fall, we both went back to school to get out Master's Degrees. Luckily, we both had the same spring break and decided to go to France. We went to Champagne, France for the last two days of our trip. After almost having to propose in the London Airport due to being selected for an extra security bag search and hiding the engagement ring in the toe of a running shoe for a week in Paris, John proposed at the beautiful Chateau where we were staying in Champagne.
