Surprise Engagement Party

for Melanie and Matt!

It all started with a first date at McDonald’s.

Now Matt’s making it official.

We need your help pulling it off!
Below is everything you need to know to make sure we’re all in the right place at the right time.

What to Expect
**MELANIE DOES NOT KNOW**

Melanie is suspicious. She is also very good at noticing things. Please don’t give her anything to work with. DO NOT SAY ANYTHING TO HER!

❋ Parking

Please park at one of the locations listed below and meet up with us there. From there, we’ll walk over to the house together and get ready for the surprise!

❋ Timeline

There’s a plan, and the plan works best if everyone sticks to it. Please pay close attention to the times below and do your best to be on time! A few minutes early is always better than a few minutes late.

❋ Light Bites

Light bites and refreshments will be provided.

Timeline

Since Melanie has absolutely no idea this party is happening, we're going to need everyone to be a little sneaky.

Here's the game plan, from parking to the big surprise. Please take a minute to check the timeline so everyone knows where to be and when—and, most importantly, so we don't accidentally ruin the surprise.

SURPRISE TIME

Late arrivals

7:30pm

Life happens! If you’re running late, please don’t come to the house before 7:30 so we can keep Melanie’s surprise completely unspoiled.

But please still come! Missing part of the plan is totally okay—we’d much rather have you join us late than miss the celebration altogether.

Parking

Together, we pause to consider our goals, hopes, and direction. This is about aligning with ourselves and with the journey ahead. This is a chance to reconnect with what brought you here—your questions, your hopes, your turning points—and consider how they’ve shifted or deepened.
