I had suspicions that Alex would propose on a month-long trip we took in March, but between Barcelona, Madrid, Tbilisi, and Tulum, I wasn't sure where or when it would happen. I ruled out Georgia because I figured he didn't know anything or anyone in the country.

When he didn't propose in Barcelona, I thought it wasn't happening on this trip at all and was telling all my friends (who knew and somehow kept it a secret) that I didn't think he was gonna propose.

Little did I know though... that Alex planned the proposal with my aunt (who lives in Georgia) and my mom. With their help, he coordinated a skyline dinner, a professional photographer and an amazing after party with my family on one of our last days. It was perfect and I was 1000% surprised.

Bonus fun fact: they didn't tell my sister because she would have definitely been the one to give it away. Shoutout Ellen.
