same proposal.<\/p>\n<p>Stormy Phillips, 30, and Kelly Rogers, 29, captured the moment they surprised one another by proposing at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>The couple, who have been together for three and a half years, both dropped hints about engagement rings around Christmas 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Without the other one knowing, they both got each other\u2019s rings designed in the same month and decided to use their annual summer trip for the proposal.<\/p>\n<p>The couple is avid hikers, so when the opportunity for a hike in the Swiss mountains arose, they both knew it was the perfect opportunity.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"nyp-slideshow-modal-image wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><figcaption>Stormy Phillips, 30, and Kelly Rogers, 29, captured the moment they surprised one

\u201cI couldn\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Kelly got down on one knee, I was so shocked and then immediately so excited to do the same for her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a real magical moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kelly and Stormy met at the gym when they both lived in Charlotte, North Carolina, and were friends for months before starting to date.<\/p>\n<figure

since.<\/p>\n<p>Stormy said, \u201cWe just happened to go to the same gym and became fast friends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbout three or four months in is when we started dating after I confessed my feelings for her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter the move, we knew we wanted to get married, but were in no rush.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"nyp-slideshow-modal-image wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><figcaption>Kelly

SWNS<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThat was until Kelly pointed out a video of a particular type of engagement ring, and started dropping hints.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both women were under the assumption that there was no rush to get engaged, but that quickly changed when Kelly dropped a hint about an engagement ring.<\/p>\n<p>After that, Stormy subtly told Kelly her own ring preferences, and they both reached out to designers without the other one knowing.<\/p>\n<p>Stormy said, \u201cWhen she showed me the ring she thought was cute, that was my signal to go ahead.<\/p>\n<figure

\/ SWNS<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cLittle did I know, she was just trying to get my thoughts out of me so she could go and design a ring for me!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m pretty sure we were both designing our rings in the same month, but with different designers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe one I got for her arrived in March, and I think the one she bought arrived in early April.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both thought to pop the question whilst hiking on their annual summer trip.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single__inline-module inline-module inline-module--newsletter aligncenter

had to lie to them both simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>Stormy said, \u201cI was thinking about how to propose, but then Kelly just kept suggesting and planning different hiking routes for when we were in

confused trying to keep up with which of us had told them what \u2013 it was so funny!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stormy was able to capture the romantic moment on video, where Kelly unexpectedly got down on one knee mid-hike.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cWe were both silent for the first part of the rainy hike, both thinking the same nervous thoughts.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"nyp-slideshow-modal-image

felt epic, and I was so happy to return the favor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stormy and Kelly spent the rest of the hike laughing and filling each other in on what the other had been up to.<\/p>\n<figure
