Michigan Winter Engagement:: Danielle + Jason

She denied his first Facebook friend request, not realizing it was the same Jason she had grown fond of at her church softball games since she never did get his last name, the same Jason a family friend was trying to set her up with, the same Jason she had chatted up to screen for one of her friends.

But he persisted and requested her "friendship" again with a message reading, "You're too good to be my friend on Facebook, but you can talk to me at softball?"  Oh yeah, this was the same Jason.  The one that always knew how to make her laugh... and soon after they had their first date of Italian food and a concert.  She was smitten.

Two years later, and not long before Jason had to leave for the other side of the country for school, Danielle entered Jason's house only to find herself following clues, photos and notes that read sweet sentiments like "I'm the luckiest man in the world"... and more, bringing her to tears before she found him near an empty chair surrounded by flowers, guitar in hand.  The proposal was perfect, much like their love, and followed by a dinner of Italian.

I predict a lifetime filled with many pasta nights, and excited for their wedding in exactly two months!

We were in the middle of a barn, no heat and it was COLD... they were troopers and definitely knew how to heat up a space.

One of the things that impressed me about Jason was his quick wit and ability to make Danielle laugh... to make us all laugh, hard.
