The Proposal

The Proposal 〰️

A bit of backstory. Since Cheryl was the one who asked Patricia to be her girlfriend, it was agreed that Patricia would ask Cheryl to be her wife.

But then Cheryl pulled a fast one by saying she wanted to plan a getaway in July to have a bit of R&R since Cheryl was getting super over worked.

This trip planned by Cheryl was the most magical trips around the Bay Area with unbelievable sunrises, sunsets and everything in between.

Here’s some of the highlights:

  • Omakase & rooftop firepit hang in SF

  • Brunch and a mini golf date

  • Chasing cows in Point Reyes. Let me tell ya, they’re fast.

  • Biking & kite flying in Bodega Bay

  • Tennis in Campbell

  • Have lunch at Carmel beach

  • Got engaged cliffside of Big Sur

But the piece de la resistance of it all was such an amazing surprise engagement party with literally every human who means the world to us.

It’s crazy to think how this adventure started over 8 years ago. There’s so much to talk about but we’re hoping to give the tldr version.

Our first date was a fun sushi lunch in downtown Mountain View. Cheryl recalls that Patricia said it was a hang out. But either way, she was hooked.

The second date was this surprisingly scorching Big Sur hike, pho dinner, and no movie kind of day but this was an important one where things started to fully solidify for us that this could be something.

From there, there would be a bunch of driving back and forth from the Bay Area to Monterey.

It wasn’t til about nearly a full year later that Cheryl said, “hey.. can you come with me outside?” and presented a cute little bouquet of roses asking, “Will you be my girlfriend?”

Ha, how cute.
