To say family and friends are important to Brandon and Christina is an understatement.  While the proposal was a surprise, the bigger surprise was who was there to see it.

Both of them live in Louisiana. Brandon wanted to have a beach proposal. He also wanted to have family and friends as witnesses. In order for this to happen Brandon's story was for them to spend a weekend with family at a beach house on Fort Morgan Road. Christina did not know that a second beach house was rented for friends. On the day of the proposal it was arranged to have Christina out shopping and doing stuff around Gulf Shores while Brandon prepared for the proposal party and friends arrived to help him. 

When Christina came back to the beach house she could tell immediately something was up. Brandon had white paper bags setup on the beach and he was standing at the base of a sand dune. She walked up to him, he proposed, and she said yes. Afterwords Brandon lit fireworks and that was the signal for everyone to come out and celebrate.
