Age/FI age: 33 / 27 When did you start dating: 5/5/12 When did you get engaged: 4/11/13 Wedding date: 11/16/13 Wedding Venue/Location: U.S. Grant Hotel, San Diego, CA Colors: Black, Gold & White
Proposal story: He surprised me with a trip to DC during the National Cherry Blossom Festival. We arrived during peak bloom, checked into the hotel and we're on a hurried walk to catch a bite to eat before a bike and cruise tour. I was going to skirt around Tidal Basin, but he wanted to walk through. The tourists hadn't quite arrived and every tree was so pretty. I saw a particularly beautiful tree with low hanging branches and a view of Jefferson monument in the back and mentioned we should come back and take our picture there. Apparently, he thought there was no time like the present; he asked a bystander to take our photo and got down on one knee.
What do you and FI do for a living (optional): I'm a scuba instructor and my fiancé is an aviation rescue swimmer in the U.S. Navy
