Absolutely incredible, totally epic, truly once-in-a-lifetime — that’s what comes to my mind when I look back on Austin and Jessi’s SF sunset surprise proposal, up on a secluded mountaintop, with this amazing view of the evening fog blanketing the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco.

“Karl the Fog” is a fickle beast, though perhaps a generous one at times: on the evening of Renzo and Joseph’s proposal, he decided to roll into the city like a low, cottony blanket, gently covering the slopes and curves of the Bay inlet. While visibility near ground level was nearly zero, the top of Slackers Hill was just high enough to peek over the low-lying fog, revealing an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime view of the Golden Gate Bridge poking up through the fog, with the city far away in the distance beyond.

(Well, ideally just one time, but you get the idea…) Matt & Olivia were in town for the Fourth of July, which has historically been the busiest, most crowded day in years past, and forecasts predicted even more sightseers this year. But luckily, the skies were just barely foggy enough to keep people away but not so much as to hinder the beautiful view at this beachy spot, giving Matt the stage for a perfectly quiet Golden Gate Bridge surprise proposal.
