Brooke and Julian meeting was a thing of chance. Julian was out with his friend Jake who also was friends with Brooke. Neither Julian or Brooke were looking for someone at the time but Jake wanted to introduce two of his mutual friends as he has always been a person who brings people and friends together. They meet and go their own ways that night. What they didn’t know was that was just the ice needed to bring these two people together.
Walking into the local bar that both Brooke and Julian frequented, Julian found that the only person he knew that night was Brooke from a brief introduction. With that Julian was able to pull up the courage to walk up to Brooke and talk to her, initially just looking to make a friend. They were able to break through the awkward initial conversation and ended up talking the entire rest of the night. What started as awkward became more natural than either one could have expected.
From that night, much of their time was spent with one another. One thing that Brooke had expressed really rang true; no matter what it ended up being, these two would always be in each others lives. It wasn’t entirely clear at first what it would be but they both felt it. As they spent more time together, it became clear that this was a love of not just friends but people who couldn’t go a day without one another as well.
Taking the bold and exciting step to become a family only solidified even more that this was for real and for the long haul for both Brooke and Julian. Finding the right way to propose, Julian wanted to find a way that fit with who Brooke was. There was more improvisation involved but it couldn’t have worked out better. The day was spent along the coast with an amazing sunset and even with as beautiful of a day that was had, Brooke still didn’t expect the proposal that day. As she enjoying the scenery and the sun was perfectly setting, Julian surprised Brooke with one of the happiest moments of their lives.
