How it happened...


How We Got Engaged

On the beach...at sunset...

It's true. It's cliche. But it really did happen that way.



Scott and Rachel were in Gulf Shores, Alabama for a family vacation with the Probsts. Their beach house was mere feet from the ocean. They went parasailing, deep sea fishing, and lounged in the surf and sun for hours on end. On the evening of May 24th, everyone dressed in white shirts and khaki bottoms for family photos on the beach. After taking various group shots, the group decided to move closer to water. It was suggested that each couple take turns walking down the beach and someone would take a photo of them from behind.

Scott and Rachel started walking away from everyone to get their photo taken. When one of the family yelled they got it, Rachel turned around to return to the group. Scott grabbed her hand and she turned around to find him on one knee asking if she would marry him.

She replied, "You said you weren't going to do this on vacation!"

He snickered and asked again. She said yes.

They hope to live happily ever after!
