The couple became engaged on March, 18, 2012, the day they moved into their new home in California. "I was arriving from New York, and John had picked me up from the airport," the bride recalls. "When we got home, he had already set up our room filled with balloons and beautifully selected pictures of our relationship. I was so surprised, and he was on his knee and asked me to marry him! It was a perfect way to start our new chapter in our new home."
