Friends of Adam and mine had flown into town for one of their birthdays. The four of us planned to go out to dinner right after work. Adam told me he got tickets to the BC football game Saturday and that we had to pick them up Friday night before we went to dinner. I clearly didn’t pick up on the fact that it was a little strange we had to get the tickets from a specific building, and we had to pick them up between 5:00 and 5:30 from the “Alumni Ticket Office” (there is no such thing). He picked me up from work, and we made our way to BC. We were walking down the prettiest part of campus, enjoying the walk, excited for dinner, Adam goes "Oh, before I forget, I got you a Just Because card…" He pulls out the card, I reach for it, and Adam says, “But I want to read it to you.” My heart skips a beat, and before I know it, he is reading a beautiful card to me, with the last line: "...and just because you love surprises..." He gets down on one knee and asks me to spend forever with him. He is on his knee for a little while, and I’m thinking “Why is he down there for so long? I want him to stand up so I can hug him and kiss him!" After I get a YES out, we hug and kiss, and I hear clicking noises and from the corner of my eye, I see two people literally come out from behind a tree. I look at him, "Adam…did you get a photographer?" and he just says “Yep.” I looked over, and realize that he had hired one of my favorite Boston photographers, Lexi Photography, to document our entire proposal! We then went around the BC campus and took some engagement pictures.

He decided to keep surprising me - we went to our favorite BC bar, and all of our friends and family were there to celebrate with us! It was such a perfect proposal, and I am so excited to be marrying him!
