Today’s Real Engagement features Shannon and Kurt who is currently working as a police officer for the SFPD. These two Giants fans have strong ties to the city of San Francisco and chose Chinatown and the AT&T Park perimeter as their backdrop.
The couple actually went to first grade together, and then went to the same high school ten years later, but never spoke to one another. Five years later when they graduated in 2007, a little thing called MySpace was responsible for bringing them together.
Shannon remembers seeing Kurt’s picture and thought how much more handsome he had gotten over the years. Something came over her so she friend requested him, and he accepted. They started chatting, and it was as if they had been friends all along, when in reality they had never spoke!
The San Francisco Giants came up in conversation and because Kurt was such an avid fan he suggested they go to a game together. Seven years later on Halloween the two were engaged. Shannon said yes after Kurt proposed by carving out pumpkins that read, Marry Me.
