Sam proposed to me at Montaluce Winery here in Georgia. It was a warm spring day, and I had a slight idea that something was happening since everyone was acting so odd. Samantha was adamant about helping with my makeup, my mother with my hair, and then they were fretting over the outfit. I even called my friend Zoe, and chatted with her about the strangeness of it but she reassured me it was simply because it was my birthday, and it was a nice restaurant. So, I didn't question it further.

Dinner was beautiful. We sat out on the back patio and had a gorgeous Raspberry demi-sec with dinner. We took a photo with an overlook of the grounds, and I thought that was it. However, Samuel than requested we take a small hike out to the pond, to which I declined since I was in heels. We went out to the pond though. Once he began talking about his life, and his grandparents who have been married 65+ years I began to realize what was happening. I truly put him through the ringer for the proposal, but he decided it was worth the effort. I found myself with a ring on my finger that night and enjoying a celebration afterwards with our close family. Truly a night to remember.
