Proposal in the midst of Paradise Peaks!

This surprise has been in the planning stages for some time! Matthew reached out to me in the beginning of August about his planned surprise proposal to Paige in Yellowstone Park. With the closure of the Gardiner road to Mammoth I suggested the Paradise Valley right on the banks of the Yellowstone River. Matthew agreed and the planning began.

The first snow of the season accented the amazing peaks that rise up out of the valley… it could not have been more perfect. Albeit, a little chilly.

The secret presence of Paige’s parents made it even more exciting!

So when Paige was taking in the awesome view Matthew stepped back to look around and went right down on his knee and touched her arm gently. It’s as if life paused for a second or two while the reality of the moment came into focus!

Congratulations to this delightful couple!
