THE PROPOSAL: "One afternoon, Grayson said, 'Let's go to that new French
restaurant you’ve been wanting to try.' So I immediately made a dinner reservation for us. I had been looking forward to this date night all week. When we arrived at the restaurant we were immediately seated and handed menus but no one came to our table. I mentioned to Grayson that it was weird that no one had brought us water yet. Shortly after, someone came up to the table with a bottle of champagne and poured us two glasses. I thanked them but when they left I told Grayson it was so weird that we haven’t been offered water. I was very confused by the unusual service we were receiving. As I sat there trying to f igure out why this was happening, Grayson asked me to put down my menu. He said that I have always been the planner but today he had a surprise for me. He got down on one knee and had a friend hide at the bar and f ilm the entire proposal!" DESCRIBE YOUR ENGAGEMENT SESSION. Our engagement session took
place in Venice, Italy. We happened to be going on a trip to Italy, Spain, and
France before he proposed, so we took advantage of the opportunity. Most of the photos took place in a gondola along the Grand Canal. WHAT DID YOU DO ON YOUR FIRST DATE?
We enjoyed an evening of dinner and dancing. WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE THING TO DO AS A COUPLE?
We love traveling together! HOW HAS WEDDING PLANNING BEEN SO FAR?
It’s been a breeze since I have so much experience planning weddings and events. PHOTOGRAPHY: Ksenia Sannikova of KS Photography
