"Above and Beyond"
Dana: George and his younger son, Alex, came to eat at the restaurant where I waited tables. He wasn’t seated in my section, but my friend offered me the table and I snatched it up immediately. There was something about him. While chatting, I mentioned I had just finished film school, and luckily, he needed someone with my skills to document his solar projects. We worked together for a year and a half before admitting to ourselves that we’d been falling in love the whole time!
George: We spent our first four years together, traveling for both work and pleasure; along the way buying an RV to explore the country. We got to know each other’s families. My sons, who were my best men, welcomed Dana from the get-go, and she is very close with them. We’ve enjoyed life and never wanted to rush a moment.
Dana: George planned a magical weekend in New York to celebrate our fourth anniversary. We took in a play, a special dinner, and a popular magic show. George had asked the magician to work his proposal into the show, but the night of, I was feeling off. As always, George read my signals and adapted wonderfully, proposing in the intimate setting of our hotel room. The next day, the Super Bowl party where we were “just stopping by” turned out to be a surprise engagement party George had arranged. It was all perfect.
