On Sunday the 17th July,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0Jeff and Kaylee decided to go to breakfast with Jeff’s sister, brother-in-law and their daughter near their home in Wentworth Falls, NSW. Unbeknownst to Kaylee, this was just the start of the biggest surprise of her life.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Jeff and I had been together just shy of 3 years. We went to breakfast and the plan after that was to go for a four wheel drive down a track where we would park and go for a picnic.<\/p>\n Cain (Jeff’s brother in law) and Karly, his sister, are outdoor adventurers so this was nothing odd to me. Cain had assured us it was a really beautiful spot so I was super excited.<\/p>\n After a half an hour drive we parked the car and then walked about twenty minutes to a spot on the edge of the mountains. When we got there it was so beautiful… no one else was around! We all just stood around taking it in for a moment. Cain went up onto a rock on the edge of the cliff and was taking photo’s. What I didn’t know then was that he was testing the lighting.<\/p>\n Cain always makes you pose for photo’s, so it wasn’t strange at all that Cain was saying : “Come on guys come stand up here and we will take a few nice photos of you two together!”<\/p>\n Cain asked me to step across onto this rock, and I really didn’t want to get up there. I was freaking out! As I was stepping across, Jeff held one hand and Cain helped me over. I was really scared\u00a0and Cain told me it would be “worth it”. Of course, I was thinking he was referring to some nice photos we would get!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We finally got up onto the rock and Jeff was cuddling me from behind and I assumed it was so that Cain could get a few nice photos. Then he said:”we brought you up here for a reason today”.<\/p>\n I just started laughing because whenever we were somewhere nice he would joke and act as if he was about to propose… so I didn’t take him seriously.<\/em> Then I felt him reaching into his pocket and my heart just stopped<\/strong>. He then presented me with my beautiful engagement ring and asked “will you marry me?”<\/p>\n I didn’t respond at first. I was just so completely shocked and not expecting it that I spun around and said, “Is this real? Is this a joke?!” Once he assured me that it was definitely not a joke I of course said YES!<\/p>\n We then climbed down off the edge of the earth and had a glass of prosecco together. I spent the rest of the day in complete shock, blissfully happy.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The best part of our proposal was definitely that he had thought it out so well and that we had a photographer with us to capture it. I also loved that it was so unexpected. It made the moment really special for us.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":21057,"template":"","au_article_tag":[1536,1078,1460,1538,1537],"class_list":["post-41695","au-article","type-au-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","au_article_category-wedding-proposal","au_article_category-real-proposals","au_article_tag-realproposals","au_article_tag-real-brides","au_article_tag-real-wedding-couples","au_article_tag-real-proposal-story","au_article_tag-real-proposals"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article\/41695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/au-article"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article\/41695\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":291194,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au-article\/41695\/revisions\/291194"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21057"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41695"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"au_article_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.easyweddings.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/au_article_tag?post=41695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
