Great story as to how this couple spent their first time meeting each other. Rachel and Jason met in 2010 at the Big Apple BBQ Festival in Madison Square Park, NYC. They were both enjoying ribs and beer, so romantic ;). Rachel was with a friend who had recognized Jason and some of the other guys she grew up with. They all hung out for the day and about a week later Jason and Rachel went on their first date!
Rachel said, “We knew it was love when we let each other go and couldn’t stop thinking about one another. We played the NYC cat and mouse game for almost 2 years until we both realized what we had right in front of us”.
Fast-forward to April 5th, 2014, Jason took Rachel back to the same spot in Madison Square Park where the couple had first met. He said some very sweet things to her and then got down on one knee. When they arrived back home, there were two-dozen roses waiting for her. “It was perfect”. –Rachel.

I grew up thinking that the Disney Parks had the best rides in the world. I shared those rides with my children as they grew up. Then as they grew, they took me on some of the most beautiful rides I have ever known. On March 28th I took another ride of a lifetime. Thank you Jason and Rachel for taking me on it. I love you both and enjoy the ride together its wonderful! XOXOX Dad
