Shadee and her husband met through a mutual friend, and from the very beginning, there was an instant connection between them. As their relationship grew, so did the life they began building together — one rooted in love, excitement, and the kind of partnership that felt effortless from the start.

When it came time to propose, he secretly worked with Shadee’s best friend to plan everything perfectly without her suspecting a thing. What she believed was simply a casual double date in New York City quickly turned into one of the most surreal and unforgettable moments of her life. Before dinner, her friend suggested stopping by her apartment rooftop for drinks — where an incredible surprise awaited. The space had been transformed with candles, rose petals, and red roses shaped into a heart. In a moment she now laughs about, Shadee initially looked around and said, “Aw, someone got engaged,” completely unaware the entire setup had been created just for her. A few moments later, everything clicked — turning into a beautiful, emotional surprise she’ll never forget.
