Our story commenced on Tinder, where our conversation ignited an instant spark. From favorite films and tunes to the enigmatic concept of the universe's heat death, our topics knew no bounds. Our first date was meant to be a casual coffee meetup along Atlanta's Beltline. However, what transpired was beyond any expectations. Our initial plan of a quick encounter evolved into an incredible 15-hour marathon of conversation and connection.

Seth orchestrated a clever proposal disguised as a "Halloween party." Little did I know that this event would mark a pivotal moment in our journey. Prior to the festivities, we embarked on a delightful outing to Piedmont Park basking in the beautiful weather. As we reached the spot where one of our earliest dates had taken place, Seth took the leap and popped the question. The joyous surprise was amplified as our friends emerged, and we embraced a jubilant celebration surrounded by their warmth and excitement. In a charming twist, Paul's proposal unfolded on Valentine's Day in 2023. Reminiscent of our first shared meal in our first apartment together, the evening was adorned with an array of wines, delectable cheeses, and indulgent chocolates, culminating in a wonderful steak dinner. With the same warmth that had marked our journey thus far, we found ourselves engaged, embracing the start of a new chapter with love and joy. These two proposals, each uniquely reflective of our shared journey, stand as cherished milestones on our path to becoming partners for life. See you in Charleston!
