I met Keeley & Jon last year at the local coffee shop to talk about their wedding plans at a private residence near the summit of Hoosier Pass in Breckenridge. I was very excited, for I absolutely love shooting at new locations. As I sipped on my delicious toffee nut latte, we talked about their ideal day, how they met, and the romantic story of how Jon proposed to Keeley.
The proposal happened over Thanksgiving weekend. Keeley had asked Jon to fly home with her for a family visit. Jon was unable to attend; at least that is what Keeley thought. The morning of Keeley’s flight Jon dropped her off at the airport after saying goodbye. Jon then parked the car and snuck into the airport to board the same flight as Keeley. Jon knew he needed help boarding the plane without Keeley’s knowledge, so he asked for assistance from the flight crew. Together they were able to get him on and off the plane without Keeley ever suspecting what was going to happen next. As Keeley existed the plane and walked into the terminal, she found Jon down on one knee waiting to ask her hand in marriage. At that moment, my heart just melted and I welded up with tears. As I listened to the rest of the story, I thought to myself how awesome my job is to hear such amazing stories. It was by far the best proposal I have ever heard.
Thanks Keeley & Jon for sharing your story and life with me. I had a blast photographing your wedding and wish you all the best with your life together. Congratulations!
