The Proposal
Engagement dinner at Tucker's Bistro
For Valentine's Day and our 4-year anniversary, Brian planned a weekend trip to Newport, Rhode Island.
We had been to Newport two years earlier during a summer while we were still long distance and loved it.
The plan was to spend a 3-day weekend at the Winter Weekend, attending the Chili Cookoff, Newport Vineyard, and enjoying the town.
Brian had other plans for our weekend and after arriving in town, he took us for a drive along the Ocean.
After finding a secluded outlet into the ocean, he pulled in and asked if I wanted to step out of the car for a moment...it was 34 degrees, so I knew at that moment that something big was happening...
Brian got down on one knee and proposed. I said yes! After getting back to the hotel room and opening a bottle of champagne, we were excited to call both sets of parents to tell them the good news!
