Story
We first met in the Fall of 2011 at the start of our junior years at Westminster College. Jeff was the social chair of his fraternity and was in charge of planning mixers with sororities. One of the mixers was a “Prom” themed event where guys and girls were matched up as dates for the night. As social chair, Jeff took that opportunity to make sure he was matched with Courtney for the night. We hit it off instantly. That event led to an actual date the following day, and we made it official a few weeks later.
Last September, almost 10 years to the day of our “Prom” night together, Jeff proposed on our first night of a cottage getaway in Hocking Hills, OH.

We went back and forth on this a lot but ultimately decided on Costa Rica. Feel free to give us your recommendations if you've been there!
