How They Met
Abhi was working full-time as a technology consultant at when Stephanie had just recently started her summer internship. They ended up not only on the same project, but also sitting right next to each other. Because of the long hours and safety issues, Stephanie needed to be escorted to her car on a daily basis, and Abhi, who had already noticed Stephanie, quickly volunteered! Numerous group outings to restaurants and music venues helped the two to learn how similar they were - love of music, affinity for traveling the world, and ambition like none other.
The Proposal
The weekend before their recent trip to India, Abhi and Stephanie drove to Barstow to drop off the dog, Guaba, at Stephanie's parents' house. When they get to Barstow, Abhi said that he wanted to take pictures of landmarks that remind him of Stephanie. First, he said, "Let me take a picture of Del Taco." Stephanie thought, "Out of all things he wants to take a picture of a drive-thru sign... but okay." Then, Abhi says that the Harvey House is the next stop since it was one of Stephanie's Grandpa's favorite buildings. It had been a long drive to Barstow so Stephanie took the dog out to walk with them. Guaba started to run circles around Stephanie, which left her tied up in his leash. As she turned around (and around) to get out of the dog's hold, Abhi was down on his knee with the ring in hand. He says, "Will you marry me?" and of course her answer was a huge "YES!"
