Two people stand on a pebbly shore, one in a gray shirt turning toward the other in a green dress who laughs.

Mason and Caitlin were in town from Kentucky when Mason got down on one knee along the water with the Castillo de San Marcos as the backdrop — a spot he'd picked out and planned with us ahead of time, right after he asked Caitlin's dad for permission. Jilly and I spread out so we could both catch Caitlin's reaction, and she was completely surprised. After the yes, they showed off the ring and we wandered to a few of our favorite spots around town, including the cobblestone side streets downtown. Then we sent them off to dinner with Caitlin's family.

Thanks for looking

There are plenty more where these came from — and if you're planning your own proposal, we'd love to hear about it.
