Lake Wenatchee Marriage Proposal
Having a beautiful place all to yourself in Washington is a treat — especially a spot as easily accessible as Lake Wenatchee. It’s a great spot to snowshoe in the winter or picnic and swim in the summer, so it was a pleasant surprise to have the entire beach to ourselves the evening Deep proposed.
He and Foram walked to the shore with her parents, visiting from India, trailing behind. They watched from afar as their daughter happily accepted Deep’s proposal. My favorite part wasn’t the hug or kiss that came after the proposal. It was Deep holding out his hand to receive the ring they’d picked out for him.
After Foram put the ring on his hand, she threw her hands out in celebration, and then they clasped hands and Foram yelled in excitement. This must have been the moment it felt real.
They celebrated with Foram’s parents afterward, followed by family photos and portraits of just the two of them as we explored the beach. To end the evening, Deep had arranged for their friends to join them. They brought bouquets, cake, and lots of love and laughter.
