A Los Angeles Aborteum Engagement Session

"Nathan and I met when I started working at our local BMW dealership. We HATED each other for the first few months, and then one night we decided to go out for drinks to try and "bury the hatchet"... we have been inseparable since." They had a garden setting engagement session because Nathan proposed at a botanical garden. In her words, "Last September Nath said we should go to the Santa Barbara Botanical Gardens with our best friends for a nice day out. He made it sound so low key! Like let's just go hangout and then get lunch.. no biggie! We were walking through the gardens and at one big boulder our friends stopped to take a picture, and Nathan told me we should get one too. So we are both posing and then he asks me."

A Ses Savines Ibiza Egyptian-Inspired Wedding

"This unique Ibiza wedding is full of love and laughter. At the rural seaside location "Ses Savines" they've created a wedding full of personal details and a special holiday feeling for their guests. They instantly felt in love with the venue.

The bride: "As I’m half Egyptian I wanted belly dancers and a shisha area for my family to enjoy and to bring out the Egyptian side in me. Andy, my husband, is a professional music producer and DJ so we decided to surprise everyone with a secret back-to-back DJ set. I’ve never had so much fun."

An Architecture-Filled Virginia Engagement Session

"My close friend invited me to an event that her PR firm was hosting in Bryant Park. I met up with her there and proceed to meet many of her coworkers, including Dan! A group of us went to a bar after the event and I had such a great time, I started hanging out with them more. Dan and I got to know each other better (mainly because he was from Minnesota and I had never met anyone from there before and was fascinated - hah!) and the rest is history.

I was fairly certain that Dan was ready to propose so I was pretty sure he wasn't going to be able to surprise me. We went on vacation, walks through Central Park, etc. and I was ready and waiting. On a Tuesday night, we were sitting around in our pajamas watching The Office (not rare for us) and Dan announced that he had some dessert (again not rare for us). He then comes out with a plate of this beautifully arranged dessert with a ring box in the middle. I was shocked!"
