He had the biggest smile on his face.

WHEN AND WHERE DID YOU MEET?
We met at Ocean City, Maryland and instantly became friends. A few years later Jake transferred to IUP and we ended up living down the hall from each other!

TELL US ABOUT YOUR FIRST DATE!
We had a movie night at my apartment. We watched “Definitely, Maybe” (rom coms are our favorite) ☺

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING TO DO TOGETHER?
We love going on hikes/exploring with our 2 yorkies, Phoebe & Tater. We love to hang out, have game nights and watch our favorite TV shows together (right now it’s Modern Family).

WHEN DID YOU KNOW HE/SHE WAS THE ONE?
I knew Jake was the one when I went down to Pittsburgh to visit my friends. I told him that he should come down with us but he said he couldn’t because of school work (little did I know he was planning to come surprise me). A few hours after being there, my friend said she had to go downstairs and she came back up and Jake was standing in the doorway. He had the biggest smile on his face. 😊

HOW DID HE PROPOSE?
It was the day we moved into our new apartment. We were going through our move in checklist and I was downstairs in the garage and he went upstairs to look around. When I got upstairs he got down on one knee in our new dining room. ❤

WHEN YOU THINK OF YOUR WEDDING DAY, WHAT DO YOU ENVISION? WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR YOU?
We envision a beautiful night surrounded by the people we love most with great food, drinks, and music!

WHY THE WILLOW?
I started following the Willow the second I heard about it. The Willow’s vision is exactly how we picture our dream wedding day! & it’s right in our hometown, where all of our loved ones are close by!
