Though Sarah and Sean met during college at the University of New Hampshire, it wasn’t until years later that the two finally got together. “We were acquaintances, but little did we know we both had secret crushes on one another!” says Sarah. The two reconnected through social media after Sean caught wind that Sarah was coming back to New Hampshire after finishing a master’s degree in New York. Sean worked up the courage to ask Sarah out on a date and the two quickly hit it off. Nine months later he proposed, presenting Sarah with a classic diamond solitaire engagement ring. “He chose a romantic location that was meaningful to both of us,” says Sarah. “He always told me he fell in love with me while we were on a whale watch on Boston Harbor, so it was only fitting that we returned there for our engagement.”
