Beau and Jenna are Engaged!!!!



Beau Haralson proposed to Jenna Fagen on July 5 in Colorado Springs, Co at the Broadmoor Hotel.

In true Beau fashion it was an elaborate, romantic, and creative proposal.

Basically he surprised her in her front yard as she was leaving for work. He let her go change (good move) and he took her to a special breakfast at the Broadmoor.

Side note: The Broadmoor Hotel is spectacular. If you are ever in Colorado Springs or near it, try to go see it!

Midway through breakfast he excused himself for a minute.
The server brought a clue to Jenna.
This clue led her to a special place they had many fun conversations last summer when they were able to stay at the hotel with Jenna's parents.
Another clue led her to a special bench right by the pond where they had another memorable conversation.
At this point our new friend, Charles, from the Broadmoor met her at the bench and led her to the final location.

He took her to the open air tower you can see in the background of their picture.
There were rose petals leading her to the top.

Side note: Apparently no one ever gets to go in this tower.

When she got in the tower, a scrapbook of their letters and pictures and memories that Beau had made was sitting on a chair for her to look through.
She didn’t know that Beau was also in the tower…he was right around the corner. So he started to play his guitar.
She came around the corner!

Side note: My family and all the Fagens were way down below on this little bridge and we could see what was happening!

So he played the song he wrote for her called “My Beloved” (also engraved in her ring) and then proposed!

She said YES
