Getting engaged is an exciting time and with each couple is a story behind how it all came to be. There’s something exciting associated with entering a new stage in life. Not to mention the surprises of how we popped the question.
As a new husband, it wasn’t long ago that I proposed and went through the motions of it all. One thing that is pretty common is, that for guys, it’s a very different process of getting things in order so it’s always interesting to hear the girls side of things.
For most men, it’s the most planning for a single moment that we’ve ever experienced. We spend time learning about diamonds, saving up, meeting parents, along with planning the perfect evening - all the while keeping it in secret. I would even say, one great part of being engaged is finally being able to tell your now fiance all the scheming, planning and work you’ve put in to make the moment “perfect”. I think most guys can relate to this.
Being a wedding photographer is awesome if you love stories. Because that’s what it’s all about – celebrating two lives coming together.
A little while ago I had the privilege of having a hand in the “surprise” stories of a good friend of mine. Inside this little cake is a special gift to his now fiance. What exciting times… I can’t wait to hear what is next for the two of them.
Stay tuned for a post recapping my proposal story.
