I was 22 and Neami was 20. We had mutual friends that planned a beach day at Newport Beach. I had laid out my beach blanket when Neami came over my way and plopped himself down right next to me . . . on MY blanket. And at that moment, on that beach, is where our story began.
After a long and eventful day spent in Pacific Beach, San Diego, we met up with my sister and her boyfriend. The four of us drove over to Sunset Cliffs to catch the sunset; it was perfect. Neami and I were standing on the cliff getting ready to have our picture taken. I was fixing my hair when I noticed that Neami wasn't standing next to me anymore. I turned to look for him and found him down on one knee with the most beautiful ring in his hand. And that was the start of our 'happily ever after.'
