All of our beautiful engravings that we showcase on Instagram have equally touching stories behind each message. This week, we'd like to shine the spotlight on Caitlin's message to her fiancé Aaron : "You swept me away."
We asked Caitlyn, "Who is the watch a gift for?"
"I am giving it to my fiancé Aaron Biedrzycki on our wedding day on June 18. We are having a summer camp wedding in New Hampshire and the watch is a perfect fit. We love adventure, travel and the outdoors, which is why the watch is perfect for him. I have never camped more in my life than since I met Aaron!

How did you get engaged?
Caitlyn told us, "We got engaged in Key West in Florida after attending a wedding, which I was a bridesmaid in. We went to 11 weddings together that wedding season, so a free weekend was hard to find! He had the ring for 5 months waiting for the right time when we were not at another persons wedding, shower, bachelorette party, etc.
How did you come up with the engraving?
"The words 'you swept me away' are the lyrics of an Avett Brothers song - Swept Away (Sentimental Version). Swept Away will be our first dance. We met on EHarmony - after messaging online briefly and living and working blocks apart from each other in downtown Boston. We would never have met if it was not for the internet. From the moment we met in an Irish dive bar in Boston we knew we had found something special. Within 10 days of meeting each other I knew I would marry him."
