To make it even more special, their parents were there too, witnessing the joy of that once-in-a-lifetime moment. Tears, hugs, and quiet laughter filled the mountain air as they took it all in — the love, the view, the promise.


After some time capturing the magic in photos, we made our way to the nearby restaurant perched above the lake, raising a glass of bubbly in celebration. The perfect pause before they continued their hike — hearts full, plans unchanged, but life forever shifted.
