This Couple Fell In Love On Instagram And Now They're Engaged
Take Denis Lafargue, of Mandeville, La., and Elizabeth Wisdom, of Mineola, Texas, for example.
They fell in love on Instagram.
It all started when Wisdom, 21, posted a photo of Crater Lake, Ore., on her Instagram feed in 2012, and Lafargue, a stranger, commented. Lafargue, also 21, had been to Crater Lake earlier that year with his family.
This is the photo:

"He kept commenting on my photos and so I finally decided to check out his profile. I started looking forward to comments I'd get from him."
"Over time, the plausible next step for the two 21-year-olds, who "liked" each other in more ways than one, was to meet in person," GMA reported this morning.
They did, and immediately fell in love.
"Attention," Lafargue posted as a caption on one of his photos, shortly after meeting Wisdom for the first time, "I have met my instalady!"
A little over a year later, Lafargue decided to propose. Instagram was very much a part of the grand gesture; Lafargue gathered 30 Instagram photos chronicling their relationship and strategically placed them along a route leading Wisdom to a barn on her grandmother's property, the place where she had always wanted to be married.
Then he popped the question.
The answer was yes.
