On the day before Mother's Day 2023, Jillian and Nate planned to spend the day with their families at Bridge Park in Dublin, OH, which is the city they currently have a beautiful home in. Jillian's mom requested that they all take family pictures in front of the Bridge Park pedestrian bridge for what Jillian thought was just for Mother's Day. Little did Jillian know that everyone had a plan in mind. Jillian's mom set up her tripod and camera in front of the bridge and she "tested" the camera with Jillian and Nate in the frame. All of a sudden, Nate got down on one knee. Jillian was in complete shock and nearly speechless. She only managed to get "shut up" and "yes" out of her mouth. Meanwhile, Nate was so taken aback by Jillian's reaction that he forgot to ask her to marry him officially, but Jillian said yes anyway accompanied by a puddle of tears. It was the happiest and most overwhelming moment of their lives surrounded by their loved ones including surprise visits from Nate's sister and her family as well as Jillian's friends. Coincidentally, a guitar player was performing during their proposal. Before they knew it, Jillian and Nate had their first dance as an engaged couple to the guitar player's rendition of "Marry Me" by Train. Needless to say, the whole day felt like a true fairytale. Jillian and Nate are so excited to celebrate with even more of their loved ones on their wedding day!
