Story
While we went to a small college of 2000 people (Mcdaniel College) and were in brother-sister fraternities, we didn't actually meet until February of our junior year (2014). Our friend Julia introduced us at the "Pub", the late night food-spot on campus, and I was immediately intrigued by his navy pants with embroidered sailboats (very New England-esque), as I had never seen anything like them before! Soon, we started talking and going to the same events on campus; our relationship just came so naturally! I went on Spring Break with friends in Orlando (March), and while there he texted me one day and said, "I told my mom you were my girlfriend. I hope that is okay??" - It was obviously more than okay! & we've been happily together ever since :)
Tidbits
How did you first meet?
See Our Story!
How did he propose?
We planned a trip to Mount Snow in Vermont for our three-year anniversary in February. We decided to go snow-shoeing up the "challenging" trail in the unsuspecting 60 degree (winter) weather. We made it about three-fourths of the way up the mountain before we stopped for a break to admire the view along an unpopulated ski trail. Stevie suggested that I get my phone to take some photos- at that moment, I should've been suspicious! I turned around and he was getting down on one knee. He totally surprised me (which is hard to do), but I obviously said YES!
What was your most memorable date?
We went to a fancy dinner in London for Stevie's birthday, a place so fancy that the employees wore green suits and the bar was made of crystal. Needless to say, we were underdressed, but the food was incredible! We wandered the streets looking for a spot for cocktails, but could only find wine cellars and tap rooms. We ended up at a TGIF (in London, of all places) for some long-island iced teas!
