A Long's Proposal Story: Grace & Jack

The perfect fall proposal! Read on to see how Jack surprised Grace with her beautiful, new ring. On behalf of the entire Long's team, congratulations and best of luck.

How did the two of you meet?

"We met at Wellesley High School. We technically went to elementary school together, but did not officially meet until high school."

How did you propose?

"October 26th, 2019. The perfect fall day: sunny skies, very few clouds, crisp, but warm air. I knew Grace loved apple picking, and asked if she would go to Lookout Farm with my friend and me to take some pictures for his job. He has a photography Instagram page so I said he needed to take pictures of an orchard for work (which she believed).

Grace's favorite type of fruit is Asian pears so once we got to the orchard we headed in that direction. We walked far enough down to get a row all to ourselves where I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me. She said YES! I told her we had to go show the ring to her parents at their house. Little did she know I had a surprise engagement party waiting for her there full of our closest family and friends."

Tell us about the engagement ring!

"Simply perfect. It is a beautiful round diamond set in a thin platinum band wrapped in diamonds."
