Details:

Before going for their EID celebrations early in the morning, Maizal presented Lindsay with a gift; a partially started photo album with pictures from the first nights they started dating to their last few dates along with beautiful sayings in the memo field for each photo. Then, when she reached the end of the photos, Maizal had inserted a note on a sheet:

"Our moments together have been dreamy and enchanting ...I want us to continue making memories together for the rest of our lives ...Will you be my wife?"

When Lindsay looked at Maizal with tears in her eyes, he presented the Ring and asked if she wanted to marry him. She accepted and he ran around the house screaming "Weeeeeeeeeeeee" !

How we met.

Maizal and Lindsay were introduced through their mutual friend Scott Campbell (the best man) in the summer of 2002.  Scott and Lindsay were in the Kelowna Rotaract Club together and Maizal and Scott were roommates.

Maizal and Lindsay became friends playing various sports on the same team and attending many of the same social gatherings.  It was not until a few years later that love blossomed.
