How We Met

Above is the very moment we first met eyes. A museum professional and a museum enthusiast, together at an exhibition opening, eager for the remarks to end so a heated discussion on dessert classifications could take place.

Three months later, we said I love you next to a hotdog cart on our way to the subway.

“When Derrick walked up the stairs, I immediately noticed him through the crowd. I tried to spend every moment of that night by his side and haven’t left ever since.”

The Proposal

Our anniversary trip to wine country included a special morning. Derrick carried a ring around for few days waiting for the perfect moment. Of course, that moment was a pit stop during a 7am coffee run. We climbed a charming hill overlooking the valley even though Madeleine was a little concerned we were violating the sign excluding non-hotel guests from said hill.

“We were so excited during the proposal we forgot to take a photo. We came back the next morning to recreate the scene and capture the moment. In addition to more photo-ready hair and makeup, a rainbow appeared over the valley during our descent.”
