The Proposal...

On August 14, 2022, Jacob proposed to me in Dallas, Texas, at Marie Gabrielle Restaurant and Gardens. He picked me up with a dozen roses for our end-of-summer date night. After missing the turn to the restaurant (and disguising it as he knew a "better and faster" way), I had a feeling something may be up and we weren't just going to dinner. We pulled into a random parking lot, he opened my door, and began his speech. After an hour of proposal, pictures, and champagne, we drove to Uchi Dallas where our immediate families were waiting for us. It was a perfect night full of tears (mostly mine), stories from the last five years of our relationship, and really good food. It was truly a night I will cherish forever.
