Tristen and I met on match.com April 2014 (romantic, right?) on
literally one of the last days that we possibly could have met. Both of
our subscriptions were going to expire and I just happened to see him and
sent a quick hello. We had our first date and we’ve been inseparable ever
since. Six months later we moved in together and nearly 1 year to the day
we started dating (May 3rd, Tristen’s birthday) he proposed! Here is that
story…
I’ve never been one to really “plan” my wedding since I was a little girl
 or look at rings that I liked, etc. Tristen and I have always had an
understanding that we’d spend our lives together but we never really put a
time frame on it. One day I was looking at Pinterest and a rose gold ring
popped up. I fell in love with it. I sent it to my mom with a message to
just hold on to the picture JUST incase Tristen ever asked her what I
would want. Little did I know two days later he went to my parents to ask
permission. He already had a ring picked out, but literally drove all over
Eastern PA to find that exact ring in the picture.Â
Early that Sunday morning we went to Lake Walenpalpack, where Tristen’s
mother and step father rent a house for a week each year. We were sitting
on the deck on the back of the house, which overlooked the lake. Tristen
suggested we go down below to the dock. We made our way down and sat on a
bench right on the water. It was perfect and serene and just beautiful.
His heart was beating out of his chest and I was wondering what was going
on haha. Then he stood up and took my hand. I said, “oh we are standing?”
he said, “yes, I have something to ask you.” he got down on one knee and
said the sweetest things in the whole world and pulled out the beautiful
rose gold ring I wanted. I was sooo confused because I literally just saw
that ring a few days ago hahaha and had no idea how he got it so fast! He
proposed on his birthday and said he couldn’t think of a better birthday
gift than to ask me to be his wife 🙂
We celebrated our 1 year anniversary last September and now we are
expecting our first child together. I fall in love with Tristen more and
more each day and can’t imagine my life without him!
