Proposal at Willoughby Park: Jeremy and Shell’s Aspen Surprise

A Quiet Ask Followed by a Big Celebration

Planning a surprise engagement that balances a private moment with a lively party is wonderful. For Jeremy and Shell, starting their proposal at Willoughby Park allowed them to share a quiet ask in Aspen. Afterwards, heading over to a surprise gathering with their family transformed the day into an unforgettable party.

Planning a Proposal at Willoughby Park

Choosing a proposal at Willoughby Park offers an intimate, tree-lined setting right in the heart of Aspen. The peaceful park setting gives couples a moment away from the crowds to slow down. Consequently, after Jeremy dropped to one knee amidst the greenery, the two enjoyed a private moment together before heading to their second big surprise.

From Saving the Day to Choosing the Ring

Jeremy and Shell met through a mutual friend, making a great impression right from the start. Jeremy loves Shell’s big heart and how she effortlessly brightens every room. Moreover, he knew he wanted to marry her after an unforgettable birthday gesture when Shell saved the day by getting football tickets when their plans fell through.

When picking out the ring, Jeremy worked directly with Shell’s mom and her trusted jeweler. Together, they created a sweet and memorable experience behind the scenes.

A Heartfelt Reunion at The St. Regis

After saying yes during their proposal at Willoughby Park, Jeremy guided Shell toward The St. Regis Aspen Resort under the impression that they were going to a celebratory dinner for two. Instead, Shell was completely shocked to walk in and find a room filled with their favorite family and friends waiting to celebrate with them.

The transition from a quiet park proposal at Willoughby Park to a joyful room full of cheering loved ones made the entire evening feel magical. The rest of the night was filled with warm toasts, happy tears, and endless laughter as everyone toasted to the newly engaged couple.
