We met in high school while we were escaping class & spending time in the library (for extra learning of course). We would flirt with each other here & there but never pursued anything. While in college, we would connect when we were back home but just as friends. In 2016, Julia reached out to Justin via social media & we haven't stopped flirting since.
2 years ago, we celebrated our one year anniversary at Tallulah Gorge with friends. We explored the Gorge, the suspension bridge, Rabun County, & (per advice from our Air BNB host) a beautiful waterfall known as Minnehaha Falls. Fast forward 2 years and Justin suggests we go up to Tallulah to celebrate our 3 year “date-iversary.” Justin mentions we should invite our friend along since he’s a photographer and can take some shots of us together. We start the shoot at the famous suspension bridge & then make our way to Minnehaha Falls, continue said “photo shoot” and about 10 minutes in, we land at a beautiful spot in the waterfall. The photographer instructs Julia to step forward and have Justin stand behind her. About 30 seconds later Julia turns to look at Justin who is on one knee with tears in his eyes. He speaks beautiful words over her and concludes with “...make me the happiest man on Earth & spend the rest of your life with me?” In tears Julia shakes her head yes over&over, blacks out for a minute, wraps her arms around his neck, and exclaim “yes. yes. Yes!”
