How we met
In 2016, Avery was house-sitting for her sister Ashley in San Francisco where she made it a routine of spending afternoons in the sun on the back patio. Kyle happened to live next door. Very quickly Avery noticed that Kyle would show up like clockwork on his fire escape casually reading a book in a full suit every time she went out there. After a few days and distant conversations, they decided to cross the railing to hangout and the rest is history.

Avery is so infinitely out of my league. I’m extraordinarily fortunate. Please no one tell her…

My favorite thing about Kyle is how much we laugh together. And how immensely patient he is. His love for cooking has been a wonderful plus too.

The Proposal
Avery was surprised when Kyle suggested a trip to Tahiti. Beach vacations weren’t usually Kyle’s thing. Unfortunately, from the very beginning of their journey, Avery was sick with a nasty flu that kept her confined to bed for the first few days.
Her health began to improve and they ventured from the mainland to the island of Moorea, only to be greeted by torrential downpour. Despite the less-than-ideal start, once they reached their overwater bungalow, Avery, still on a lot of cold meds sat on their deck gazing at the ocean and said, "This is the best trip ever."
It was at that moment that Kyle decided it was the perfect time to pop the question.
“
I truly believed she would say yes, but my nerves were all over the place. I hadn't let the ring leave my pocket for days. Who wants to get proposed to while sick and in the pouring rain? But I couldn’t wait a second longer.
-Kyle
“
Once I realized what was happening I couldn’t put a sentence together. I think I was the only one who didn’t see it coming. It was perfect.
