It’s official! After living together for the last five years and being “together” for the last three we’ve decided to tie the knot! Last Saturday during our evening hike we sat down at a bench for a break when, to my complete surprise, Mark held out my grandmother’s ring and proposed. Yes, my grandmother’s ring that my mom had been wearing ever since she passed. I can’t put into words how much it means to have this ring.
Since we make a living photographing other people’s weddings we’re always talking about what we’ll do for our wedding. Because we talk about getting married on a semi-regular basis I was extremely concerned that it wouldn’t be that big of a deal for me when Mark actually proposed. Luckily, on Saturday, I discovered that I actually am a girl and do have a heart, when I immediately broke into tears as he proposed. It’s such a weird feeling to go to other people’s weddings nearly every weekend and now have to plan my own. We couldn’t be more excited and will share all the details here as they come. Our biggest challenge…choosing a photographer! We’ll definitely keep you posted.
Our friend Scott Dressel-Martin was kind enough to shoot a couple photos of us while we were out photographing his kids the other night.
