Patrick & Mya - Surprise Proposal

THE LOVE STORY

Mya and Patrick met through work! Mya got to process all of Patrick's on-boarding paperwork, so she got to know him (background check and all) before they even met! Then on Patrick's first day, she was the one who greeted him and helped him get settled into his new role. As soon as she brought him to orientation, she went back to her teammates and told them that she was going to marry him. A few months later he was at the movie theater when he received a text from Mya asking if he'd like to go out on a date later that day. Patrick immediately got up and left halfway through the movie to meet her!

They are both originally from upstate New York, but it wasn't until they moved to Massachusetts that they met! It just so happens one of the first things Mya pointed out to Patrick is that their area codes were the same, so she asked where in New York he was from. That's when they realized they had grown up only a few towns away from each other.

According to them sparks flew right away. They both felt that they could be themselves with each other from the moment they met. Their first few dates were very memorable to say the least. They made a point not to over plan dates. Instead, they chose random towns they had never visited before, to explore and make unforgettable memories along the way.

Patrick: "I fell in love with her pretty much instantaneously! She brings out the best in me, makes me laugh, and never ceases to amaze me! I smile constantly around her, and I know she's my partner no matter what life has to throw at us."

Mya: "I've loved him from the moment I met him - ask my manager ;)! He is the kindest, most supportive, and caring person I have ever met in my life. He is the light that always gets me through the dark and together, I know we can get through anything! I can't imagine a world without him."

Patrick chose Ocean Park to propose because of how much it means to Mya and her family. Mya has been going there with her family since she was 1 month old! Her grandmother and grandfather met in Maine and started the tradition with their kids and the tradition still continues today. She has so many happy memories growing up in Ocean Park and he wanted to continue adding to them by proposing in a place of true significance!
