Kyle and Brooke grew up just 2.6 miles from each other, but their story didn’t begin until the fall of 2015. With a few friends, Kyle happened to be cheering on Brooke’s high school hockey team, unbeknownst to him he was supporting his future wife. During the game, Brooke came off the ice with an injury, and Kyle happened to be standing right there. In typical Kyle fashion, he said “hey” with a goofy smirk. Brooke proceeded to look at him, roll her eyes, and continue walking. A few days later, Brooke reached out to Kyle to say “hey”. It was here Kyle and Brooke began their friendship, denying having any feelings for each other. After a few months, they went out on their first date on Valentine’s Day and the rest is history! A few years later, they headed off to college and eventually returned home after graduating. In 2022, Kyle and Brooke bought their first home together. They enjoy spending time on home renovation projects and gardening. After 8 years of dating and 9 years of friendship, Kyle surprised Brooke with a proposal!

From what Brooke thought was going to be an average Saturday in June, Kyle had other plans. After making plans to visit Kyle’s summer home in Ossipee, NH, Brooke and Kyle took a drive through the Kancamagus Highway - one of their most favorite scenic driving routes to Ossipee. Kyle insisted on pulling over at a nearby lookout point to admire the view and take a walk to the lookout spot. Reluctantly, Brooke agreed (it was freezing on the top of that mountain!). As they walked to the lookout spot, Brooke began suspecting something was up as Kyle couldn’t stop smirking. After badgering him about what was going on and even feeling his pockets for that infamous little box, Kyle finally gave his speech, took a knee, and asked Brooke for her hand in marriage. It was the most natural yes for her. It was so natural, she forgot to even say yes. A photographer nearby captured the special moment. Kyle and Brooke headed back home to a surprise engagement party thrown by Kyle and their family. They celebrated with friends and family all night, bringing the magical day to a perfect end.
