Knowing so early on that Devyn was the one for him, Nathan wanted to propose on the hill that looked out over the city where they had first met. 

At sunset, under a beautiful arbor that Nathan had handmade, twinkling with fairy lights, he got down on one knee to ask Devyn to marry him. This was beyond anything that Devyn could have expected, it was truly one of the most special moments. Afterwards, as a further surprise, they went back to a friend’s house to celebrate, where they were surrounded by the friends and family that had seen their story unfold. This would be the beginning of the next chapter in their tale. 

In every relationship, challenges always need to be faced, but it’s how you overcome these challenges that define you.

Before their engagement, Devyn and Nathan were experiencing uncertainty with Devyn’s new job as a flight attendant, in where they would be located, and having to spend time apart from each other for the first time. Overcoming these challenges together made them stronger and defined them as a couple. 

They learned to be open and honest with each other, to give each other space when they needed space and to comfort one another when they needed support. It’s about finding the silver lining and that despite all the challenges that life throws your way, you should work through the struggles together as a team. For Nathan and Devyn, it was remembering that they had each other, no matter where in the world they ended up. 

As Nathan wanted the engagement to be a complete surprise for Devyn, Nathan picked out Devyn’s engagement ring himself; an intricate and unique solitaire diamond ring.  As well as picking out a vintage design that he knew she would cherish, having a diamond engagement ring was an especially important aspect to Nathan. The Forevermark diamond in the ring signifies the beauty, inside and out, of Devyn, the woman that he had fallen in love with, as well as the beautiful adventure that they were on together.
