How did the two of you meet?
The happiness and love that we feel by being together now and for the rest of our life, is superior.
Give us the proposal details! When? Where? How?
A few weeks before the proposal, Max began recommending that we visit Dumbarton Oaks. He mentioned that the grounds were near Georgetown and had “an art museum and nice gardens” – both of which he knew I would love. On Saturday, June 10th, Max returned home from soccer and suggested that it would be a perfect day to go to visit Dumbarton Oaks, and I agreed. After walking around the art museum (which was larger than Max had expected) for a couple of hours, we walked to the gardens right before the place was about to close. Max led me to his first potential proposal spot (The Pebble Garden), but someone was unfortunately, doing an Instagram Photoshoot. So, we walked to a trellised lane further into the garden. At the end of the path, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. While I obviously was going to say yes, instead I exclaimed, “OMG, are you serious?” and about 40-seconds after, Max said: “So, is that a yes?” – “YES!” Then, we got bubble tea and ate at &pizza. The end… or the beginning 😉
