Sydney and Ryan First Kiss

Sydney and Ryan dated for 11 months before he proposed. He took her on a surprise trip to San Francisco, California, and popped the question at sunset while they were on a sailboat under the Gold Gate Bridge. He even surprised her by having her parents and best friend be at dinner that evening. They spent the rest of the evening taking in the town. “I had a gorgeous round diamond on my hand, the man of my dreams on my arm, and my favorite people by my side,” she says. “It was perfect!”
