How We Met.
Stephany and Eric met in the summer of 2013. After a bit of back and forth, they exchanged phone numbers and had their first chat while Stephany struggled to put a bike rack on her car (she was determined to become an avid bike rider but that didn't last too long). They continued to talk and text regularly and on July 20th, went on their first date. Soon after, they began a great friendship, which ultimately led to them developing feelings for each other. On November 23rd, they had their first kiss and made things "official" soon after.
The Proposal.
Stephany and Eric knew they wanted to spend their lives together very early on but it wasn't until July 1, 2016, that Eric decided to pop the question. Eric had been thinking about asking Stephany to marry him for for months but he really wanted the proposal to be special. That evening, after Stephany came home from work, Eric invited her out for an early birthday dinner, just the two of them - the next day they would be jumping on a plane for a weeklong vacation with family in Riviera Maya, Mexico.
Eric took Stephany to their favorite restaurant - Sardinia - on the beach. After having a delicious dinner, he asked her to take a stroll with him to the park facing the bay. Unbeknownst to Stephany, Eric had plans to pop the question. As they stood under the starlit night sky, watching the sailboats on the water, Eric got down on one knee and asked Stephany to spend the rest of her life with him. With tears of joy and happiness in her eyes, Stephany said YES!
