How They Met:
Kim and Kenneth met at the Bedlam football game back in 2018. It was a bright and sunny day and Oklahoma University was playing Oklahoma State. After an exciting game, Kim decided to go and get a slice of pizza with a group of her Oklahoma University friends to celebrate their victory. She ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza and a beer, and just as she was about to take her first bite, Kenneth sat down next to her and said hello.
“Perfect timing”, Kim managed to mumble with a mouth full of pizza. They both laughed and immediately hit it off. Even though Kim was there with friends, things seemed to flow very easily and naturally with Kenneth there. Usually she would’ve politely explained that she was out with friends and had to get back to spending time with them but this was different. Kenneth was special.
The more they spoke the more they discovered they had in common. They had both grown up in Oklahoma and both of their parents had also attended the same universities. They loved grilled cheese sandwiches dipped in tomato soup and both poured milk into their cereal bowl before the cereal, something that they had both gotten flack for from friends and family members. They shared a passion for sports and attended church every Sunday. It seemed like a match made in heaven.
Before they finished their second beer, Kenneth explained to Kim that he was in the army. Kim quickly understood that if they started dating, it would require a different kind of commitment from her. They tried to take things slow but quickly realized that they were both “all or nothing” types. Both of them happily took the next step and Kim moved into Kenneth’s apartment in Bartlesville, OK.
How They Asked:
Kim was looking for a local Bartlesville, OK, photographer to take pictures of them to create some DIY wall decor for their home. She decided on a photoshoot in the Wichita Mountains, one of her favorite spots! When Kenneth found out about this photography session, he knew exactly what to do. He took advantage of the opportunity and secretly contacted the photographer to plan a beautiful mountain proposal.
Since Kim was usually the one to take charge and plan things, Kenneth was excited to have her surprised by her own plan. He also knew he was going to be deployed soon so it was best to propose as soon as possible and not wait until the next time he was back home. Within the first few shots of the photo session, Kenneth got down on one knee and popped the question. It was an excellent moment to catch on camera and the look on Kim’s face was priceless. The sparkling diamond engagement ring from a local Bartlesville, OK, jeweler really sealed the deal. Kim said yes!
