How We Met
Kevin and I met when we were 7 years old at church where we both attended. He was my first crush from the time I saw him and years later we reconnected and started dating at the age of 19. It feels unreal that the boy I used to daydream about marrying when I was 7 is now the man who asked me to marry him.
How They Asked
Kevin and I planned a vacation to Mexico little did I know this would be my proposal trip. Kevin really thought of everything. Ironically he asked me to be his girlfriend at my favorite Mexican restaurant 5 years ago and it was only right he asked me to marry him in Mexico. He planned with the resort weeks in advance to have my proposal there on the beach.
He talked to the photographer and videographer several times before we went to Mexico and even planned to have our room decorated to celebrate our engagement. The proposal happened on our fourth day on vacation. He told me we were doing a nice dinner on the beach. He also told me that he bought me a fake rose so I could take to dinner and he would use it to get some nice pics of me at dinner.
He usually loves taking pics of me so this was no surprise to me or made me think anything. I had no clue this was actually a ring box that was holding my ring. This was his clever way of getting my ring down to the beach without me knowing. As we were sitting waiting for food under the gazebo on the beach, the photographer and videographer approached us to take promotional pictures for the hotel, little did I know I was actually having my proposal photoshoot. As you can see in the pictures I was posing with my eyes closed and little did I know when I turned around I would get the biggest surprise of my life.
