With a beautiful smile lighting up her face, Sophie Delezio can't contain her W joy as she begins to organise her dream wedding to the cute boy she met in Year 9 after he proposed to her with candles, rose petals and a diamond ring on Valentine's Day.
"When I saw all these rose petals, I thought this is romantic, we can order in some Domino's and watch a movie," giggles Sophie, who was caught completely by surprise when boyfriend Joseph Salerno dropped to one knee.
The pizza and movie were put on hold after Joseph's sweet and thoughtful proposal that involved a stressful last-minute change of plans and a scrapbook full of beautiful moments in their relationship.
"There were definitely tears. As soon as I saw her reaction I was like, 'Oh God, and I started to cry. I was actually trembling," reveals Joseph, before Sophie chimes in to admit she was also overwhelmed with emotion.
"We were both crying," she says.
FRIENDS AT FIRST SIGHT
Sophie, 22, and Joseph, 23, met in Year 9 at Oxford Falls Grammar and soon became fast friends, spending afternoons together and even going as each other's dates to their Year 10 formal, although their relationship remained platonic.
"I think we both had to live a bit of life and experience a bit, and go through hardships and other life-changing events before we ended up together," smiles Sophie, who spent last year travelling to 26 different countries with Joseph.
MAKING MEMORIES
Sharing her exciting wedding plans with Woman's Day, budding journalist Sophie says she is happy to have found the love of her life and is bubbling over with excitement about tying the knot with Joseph in the NSW Hunter Valley next year.
