In Adam’s Words:

How did you two meet? We met while working for a police dept. in Los Angeles. I was a detective at the time and she was our court filing officer. It definitely wasn’t love at first sight lol. But I guess I grew on her. We have been best friends ever since. It’s a great feeling to marry your best friend.

How did you propose? We were on our way to Kauai, Hawaii for a family trip. My whole family was on the plane. I arranged for one of the flight attendants to make a “special announcement.” Then mid-air I got down on one knee in the aisle, popped the question and she said yes. Afterwards we enjoyed many drinks compliments of the captain who came to our seats and congratulated us.

What does she like most about the engagement ring? I purchased the engagement ring at at the Torrance location with Elizabeth who was extremely helpful. She helped me pick the perfect 1.05ct princess cut diamond. It was set on top of an amazing platinum ring. Exactly what my fiancée was looking for.

The Cooks celebrate their engagement at 35,000 feet in the air!
