Cale and Vanessa have a mutual friend that happened to invite both of them to trivia night at LTS Brewery (LTS=life's too short) in Rochester, MN. The theme for trivia that night was the TV show Boy Meets World and Vanessa and her friend knew pretty much every answer. There was an instant connection between Cale and Vanessa, which led to a date a few days later. That trivia night consisted of popcorn, good beer, playing games, and the spark that began Cale and Vanessa's love story. Spoiler alert: their team ended up winning trivia that night, so there was more than one win that Tuesday in December of 2016 :)
Cale and Vanessa took a trip of a lifetime with Cale's best man, Casey and his wife, Bree. They all flew out to California and drove back to Minnesota over a week, making several stops to explore. After California, they stopped in Las Vegas for a couple days and then ventured out to Utah to hit up some national parks. The first destination was Zion National Park which was absolutely stunning. Next was Bryce Canyon National Park, another breathtaking place. Bryce Canyon was where the magical proposal happened. They were all hiking through the park and Cale picked out a perfect spot overlooking the canyon with a mix of snow and trees. The spot happened to be called Fairytale Overlook, but Cale seriously didn't know this until after the fact! Vanessa was so pleasantly surprised and was excited to say yes! In engaged bliss, the next stops included Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, and a swim in the hot springs of Colorado, among several other places. This trip was one we will never forget!
