"Above & Beyond"
Our story began with all our mutual friends thinking we’d be great together, and constantly reminding us of that. Danny and I were friends for a long time, but never took the plunge into dating. He persisted and eventually we went on our first date. I didn’t eat fish, so when he took me to Fat Fish for dinner, it was an immediate joke among our whole group of friends, and an endearing memory for us. Danny and I now laugh over it and go back to the restaurant on occasion, with Danny encouraging me to be more adventurous!
We’ve always loved Montauk, and were spending a weekend there stopping at all our favorite spots, drinking, eating, and enjoying bonfires. We were leaving our hotel one morning to head to the wineries, when Danny reminded me that I had some gems from a bracelet lying on the bed. I went to pick up the pieces and flipped back the cover to see the most gorgeous engagement ring I had ever seen. I turned around and Danny was on one knee. It was very intimate and was everything I ever wanted.
