how we met
My wife and I met online through Match. We both thought we would just meet at a cute, little cafe for a quick coffee. We ended up there for a couple hours, sharing coffee drinks and crepes, speaking Spanish intermittently, and I boldly decided to give her a birthday present on the first date. Somehow, it all clicked and we decided to see each other again.
how they asked
I popped the question back at the cute, little cafe where it all began. We had dinner reservations at a restaurant across the street from the cafe where we went on our first date. Before dinner, I suggested we stop by the cafe and grab a coffee for old times’ sake. As we walked up to the entrance, I pulled out my phone and played a video montage of photos from significant and memorable moments in our relationship set to our favorite songs. As the video ended, she looked over and I was down on one knee. I asked her to marry me. Surprised and overcome with emotion, she simply nodded “YES.”
