Dave Van Veen wanted to make his proposal to his girlfriend, Kailyn Kenney, memorable. It was, but not for the reason he had hoped.
Dave Van Veen wanted to make his proposal to his girlfriend, Kailyn Kenney, memorable.
"The goal was to make it a surprise, and it was certainly a surprising day," Van Veen said.
Van Veen spent the day Dec. 22 preparing and setting the scene. He had been planning for months.
"I was super nervous," Van Veen said.
He said he started by showing Kenney's custom engagement ring to his family in the Madison area, letting them know his plans to propose.
"We looked at the ring and were all excited. I closed it up in the ring box, and I put it in my jacket pocket. I zipped it shut," Van Veen said.
From there, he drove to Milwaukee and made multiple stops in the city.
