WE'RE GETTING MARRIED!

This site has all the info you need to come and celebrate with us for the weekend.

The cute meet

By 'Person's name'

November: Cute boy tells me that he likes my jacket while wearing a nearly identical one.

December: Said boy and I run into each other often in the mornings at the coffee shop. We never speak, but smile when we walk by each other. 

January: Same cute boy holds the door open for me while I come into the coffee shop from the car park. He holds it open super early while I'm still by my car, so I run to (unsuccessfully) make it less awkward. 

April (my birthday): I send my friend over to make an introduction to the 'cute guy in a blue shirt who I see around all the time'. 'Person's name' does his best to woo me, then invites me and my friends to celebrate my birthday with his friends.

Later in April: Quickly after the first date, we go on a hike for our second date.

The proposal

By 'Person's name'

Planning a surprise proposal for somebody who doesn't like surprises poses a set of unique challenges. I knew that she needed to have her family around (dog included), and it had to be at the cabin.

'Person's name' and I took a walk down to the beach where I used my prepared bullet points to nail the proposal. Just as I got down on one knee, my brother's drone caught the footage from above. She said yes (nailed it!), and we celebrated with our family over a feast of crab, champagne and homemade pie.
