The Proposal:
Isaac surprised Carina with a gorgeous picnic proposal at the Botanic Gardens. The setting was styled with a carpet surrounded by gorgeous white rose florals, rose petals and candles. Once Isaac began engaging with My Proposal Co. to be his proposal planners, he was able to ensure that their special day would be unforgettable.
How They Met:
Isaac and Carina first crossed paths in April 2021, thanks to a spontaneous decision to attend a house party. Earlier that day, Carina had met up with two friends for brunch, and they invited her to join them at the party that evening, though she didn’t realize they were +1s. After arriving, she quickly found herself mingling and enjoying the night with drinks in hand.
It was around 30 minutes into the evening when she spotted Isaac walking into the room—handsome, blonde, and standing out in the crowd. Later, as the night unfolded, Isaac teamed up with someone to play beer pong, and Carina joined the opposing team.
Her team came out victorious, and the two spent the rest of the evening chatting and laughing. Before long, it was past midnight, and as people began to leave, Carina decided it was time to go as well. She ordered an Uber, said a hasty goodbye to the few remaining guests—and though she’s sure she said goodbye to Isaac, he disagrees, as he would have asked for her number if that had happened.
The next morning, nursing a hangover and lying on the couch, Carina couldn’t stop thinking about Isaac. When she saw a Facebook Messenger request from someone named Isaac, she initially thought she was confused, mistakenly thinking his name was Ethan. But as she quickly realised who it was, she happily accepted the request, and from there, their connection blossomed into something beautiful.
How They Proposed:
Isaac really put his heart and soul into planning the perfect proposal. He arranged what seemed like a simple lunch at Mount Lofty House in the Adelaide Hills, but along the way, he casually suggested they stop by the Mount Lofty Botanic Gardens. Carina thought it was a bit odd, but she went along with it, not suspecting a thing.
As they wandered through the gardens, they arrived at the duck pond, and that’s when Carina saw it—a stunning floral backdrop that immediately took her breath away.
She began to feel a sense of anticipation, and before she could process it, Isaac got down on one knee, delivering a heartfelt speech that left her in tears. He asked her to marry him, and without a second thought, she said yes.
Afterward, they spent time soaking in the beauty of the gardens and capturing a few photos together before heading to Mount Lofty House for a celebratory high tea and champagne.
The entire day was filled with joy, excitement, and pure happiness—the perfect beginning to the next chapter of their lives together.
