She Jumped for Joy After This Surprise Proposal Session at the Reach Resort

When Andrew reached out to plan a surprise proposal for his girlfriend Morgan, he had one very specific vision: she would have absolutely no idea what was coming. Not a clue. And after a little coordination around a wedding that had taken place earlier that day, that's exactly what happened.

The two flew into Key West from West Virginia, where they're both in dental school together. Andrew had chosen the gazebo out over the water at The Reach Resort, a stunning spot where the sunset practically does half the work for you. As the light dropped over the water and the pier cleared out, Andrew found his moment.

He turned to Morgan and said, "You know what I'm about to do" before getting down on one knee.

Morgan later described being completely caught off guard. She'd had no hints, no suspicions, nothing. Just a beautiful evening and then suddenly her best friend asking her to spend forever with him. She said yes, of course.

Their story is the kind that makes you believe in timing. Andrew and Morgan first crossed paths when he was a freshman in high school and she was a senior, neighbors separated by a stretch of woods. Friendly, but nothing more. Life moved them in different directions, until years later when Morgan, now a third-year dental student at WVU, was assigned to show Andrew around during his interview day. When he got accepted and moved back to West Virginia, she asked him to hang out. His high school crush was now into him, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Thinking about a surprise proposal in Key West? The Reach Resort's gazebo is one of the most breathtaking spots on the island to pop the question, and having an undercover photographer there to capture every unscripted, genuine reaction is what turns a moment into a memory you can relive forever. Morgan had no idea I was there. Neither will your partner.
