Professional surfer Bethany Hamilton became engaged to Christian youth minister Adam Dirks in May 2013. Gushing about that day, she shared with People, “We hiked to our favorite quiet beach, munched on lunch, and hung out. Then we went for a walk to a beautiful garden behind the beach. As we were walking, we found two coconuts, my favorite thing to drink, which accompanied the ring.”
In August 2013, the two wed in Kauai, Hawaii, in front of 300 guests. It also marked ten years since her shark attack. Hamilton shared how excited she was to spend her life with someone who enjoyed a life of thrill just like her. “[Adam] and I love to live healthy, active lifestyles, and we hope to share that with others. I’m excited to go on some adventures with him as well,” Hamilton said (via People).
In a video of the pair discussing how they met, Hamilton dished on Dirks’ awkward phone message to meet for the first time, their engagement, and their wedding day. Dirks gushed that getting married to Hamilton was “the best day of our lives.”
