Joe did a secret proposal serenade for me in the freezing cold at 7 AM on a Sunday with wind and rocked it. He sang “Something” by the Beatles, “I Choose You” by Sara Bareilles, and “It’s Your Love” by Tim McGraw. He was super communicative and followed my instructions to a tee. He even stuck around to take a few pics after. Would highly recommend! Thank you Joe for making this day even more special.
