How They Met
Brooke and Graf met while attending Auburn University. Brooke was studying Chemical Engineering and Graf was studying Civil Engineering and both joined the Cupola Engineering Ambassadors. They knew each other for about a year and a half before finally hitting it off during a trip to Lake Martin on Labor Day of their senior year. Brooke then asked Graf to her sorority formal, and the rest is history!
How He Proposed
Graf proposed in the Museum District of Houston, TX where they will live after the wedding. Brooke had friends and family coming into town to run the Blue Bell Half Marathon and Graf suggested she go to dinner with the girls the night before the race. With the help of Brooke’s friends, Graf planned it out so that they walked past a garden on the way to dinner. Here, Graf was waiting to surprise Brooke! Friends and family hosted an engagement party following the proposal, and they still managed to run the half marathon the next morning!
