On our trip to Germany in September 2023, he traveled all the way across the ocean to Europe with a ring in his backpack. Through TSA and unpacking in hotel rooms I had absolutely no clue what was to come.

We headed out our first full day dressed in our lederhosen and dirndl and headed to Oktoberfest. We were met outside our hotel by a group of fellow American’s looking for directions on their GPS. We invited them to follow us and ended sharing our first liter of beer together. On the way to our second beer tent, Mateo asked one of the guys in the group to take a photo. Moments before he had mentioned to him that he was going to propose and the guys said “alright, let’s do it!” In front of the Hoffbrau horses, he got on one knee and I was in shock. I kept repeating “I don’t even know what’s going on!” In front of hundreds of people from all over the world there was ring on my finger and we were over the moon excited. People were congratulating us in all different languages. There was a couple who approached us to congratulate us and said that they were here visiting celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary in the same spot they got engaged 30 years ago! It was truly a story we will never forget and the craziest experience.
