Tell us your love story — how did you meet, when did you know they were the one? :
We met when I was 16 and he was 18! We both worked at our local grocery store, our mutual friends set us up on a whim! Before this we only shared small conversations at work. We met in person one day and never left each other’s side. It’s been 9 years now! I knew he was the one when I couldn’t imagine my life without him, and I saw how well he listened and how well he knew me. He was making grand gestures from the beginning and that hasn’t stopped even after all this time!
Do you have any advice or tips for others planning a proposal?:
Follow your gut! Make it special to just you two- there will be time to celebrate with friends and family after but make it a special moment for you and your partner. Listen to their interests and listen when they mention what they like. As long as the proposal is meaningful, it’ll mean the world to them!
Why did you choose a PNPS ring? What stood out to you?:
I saw a PNPS ring on Pinterest by chance years ago before I even considered what engagement rings I liked. I immediately saved it and sent it to Noah, anytime someone asked I always said I wanted a salt and pepper stone. I loved how unique they were, they’re non traditional and they’re so so elegant. I love the way mine sparkles in the light and you can see all the fine details ! I can’t imagine having any other engagement ring.
What has been the most memorable part of your engagement/wedding?:
Noah told me he planned to proposal back in March 2025, but he didn’t tell me when. He let me pick out my dream ring (he knew the stone I wanted but found PNPS all on his own). He gave me no hints about when the actual proposal was happening because he wanted it to be a surprise. We celebrated our 9 year anniversary this May (2025). Noah planned the whole thing, and he did amazing. He recreated our first anniversary! We went to the same restaurant and the same beach we visited in the Hamptons, NY. We walked out into the jetty and he told me he wanted to find fish in the water, when I turned back around to face him he was on his knee and I was so shocked! Even after all that he planned a surprise engagement party at our local bar and I had no idea- all our closest friends and family celebrated with us that night. I never knew what I wanted out of a proposal but he did amazing in every sense of the word. He even hired a professional photographer that I didn’t even notice!
