So, a special event occurred this weekend: Evan and I got engaged!
For those who are curious, he proposed in front of the giraffes at the San Francisco Zoo (the site of our very first date). I didn't see it coming at all.
Here's the ring:
It's from a company called Brilliant Earth, who specialize in ethically sourced and green materials for their jewelry. This means that the diamond comes from Canada, the emeralds are lab-grown, and the gold is recycled. And Evan picked it all out himself! (He did a really good job.)
And here are a few more shots of the weekend, in no particular order.
Our amazing bed and breakfast in Cayucos, CA had a bottle of champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries waiting for us in our incredible room.
Evan looking dapper.
More to come!
