After five wonderful years of building a life together with their four amazing children—Brianna,Shayla, Ashlyn, and Sebastian—Jackie and Chad had created a family filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories.

Knowing the moment was right, Chad planned a magical trip to New York City. Between sightseeing, Broadway shows, and the excitement of the city, Jackie had a feeling a proposal might be coming… just not when it did.

During a horse-drawn carriage ride through Central Park, the carriage came to a stop on a bridge overlooking the fountain. In that unexpected moment, Chad asked Jacqueline to spend forever with him. It was perfect in every way—and a complete surprise, which made it all the more magical.
