Hinge set us up on the day after I (Katie) moved back from Dallas. Taylor was a patient man, waiting allegedly “45 minutes” for me to arrive at Casa Rodriguez in downtown Bryan. We bonded over our mutual love for Tex-Mex and margaritas. The best and last swipe right!

We planned a ski trip up to Salt Lake City, Utah. The first day there, our gracious host Mark took us around to explore the city and get fitted for skis. He wanted to show us a “cool spot” before lunch so we pulled over on the mountain to hike down into Little Cottonwood Trail. Of course, this was all a part of Taylor’s plan to surprise me. He popped the question next to a river in the most beautiful spot, knowing my love for travel, hiking and nature. It was an easy yes.
