Josh grew up in Florida, and just happened to be stationed on Whidbey Island in WA. Susanna grew up in Washington and was living in Bellingham. Both of us decided to give dating apps a try and ended up matching on "Coffee Meets Bagel". From the very first date, we hit it off with a shared sense of humor and love for travel and adventures. Both of us had crazy schedules, so we were always sure to pick a time for the next date before letting each other out of sight. The more time we spent together, the more we both grew sure that this was something special; that this person was the one we wanted to spend the rest of our life with. Josh proposed to Susanna in Hawaii on July 6th. We started our day with a trip to the bottom of Waipi'o Valley were we got the chance to hang out with a herd of wild horses. In the evening, we headed to the top of Mauna Kea, the islands 14,000ft tall volcano, to watch the sunset. To end the night, we drove back down to sea level to the ocean shore to see the Milky Way. After watching the brightest shooting star either had ever seen fly across the night sky, Josh asked Susanna a very important question. She of course immediately said yes!
