Engagement story from the bride-to-be:

He proposed to me after the perfect dinner on NYE in 2013. He asked me about my goals for the New Year in a post-dinner conversation and the ring was brought out with dessert! Everyone in the restaurant cheered and we celebrated with champagne. I went into 2014 with one goal scratched off my list!

For the Groom: Walk us through the behind the scenes of creating this special day:

I purchased the ring before Christmas of that year but decided that a NYE proposal was a better look. Going out to dinner is our thing so I knew that I wanted us to do that. I told her we should get dressed up and go out for a nice dinner for NYE. I spent time researching to find just the right restaurant in the city (Washington, DC). Narrowed it down, made a reservation and told them about the proposal. I slipped the server the ring when I went to the bathroom. The words just came to me when it was time.
