Joe had a plan—a clever and heartfelt one. He invited Deanna to an open-concept escape room adventure at a place called Adventures of Intrigue. Deanna was excited and quickly agreed. Since the activity was designed for up to 6 people, Joe suggested she invite a few friends to join. Together, they coordinated schedules, picked the adventure, and set a date.

As the day approached, Joe casually mentioned a change of plans: the adventure they originally booked had been double-booked, and the manager at Adventures of Intrigue had offered them a different, brand new scenario. Deanna didn’t think much of it, but little did she know this was part of Joe's plan to throw her off.

On the big day, Deanna, Joe, and their friends gathered for a magical adventure to assist the head wizard of a fictional Wizard College with recovering stolen spells. The game was immersive, challenging, and a blast for everyone involved. Deanna didn’t suspect a thing.

As the adventure concluded, they gathered to receive the congratulations from the head wizard. But something unexpected happened. The wizard mentioned Deanna by name.

“Wait,” Deanna thought, “how does the game know my name? Is this normal?”

Before she could figure it out, the wizard continued: “Joe has a special question to ask you.” Deanna turned around, and there was Joe on one knee, holding a ring. He asked her to marry him. And, of course, she said yes!
