Katie and Sean meet online. After talking back and forth, they decided to finally meet in person. It was an impressive feat as Sean was not from the Twin cities! Katie was visiting family in his area and they took the opportunity to get together. Their first date was at a brewery. They both commented on how quickly the date seemed to go. Before they knew it hours and hours had passed. I love when your are just with the right person, time doesn’t seem to matter. Katie was pleased and taken aback on how respectful Sean was to her needs that first day when she had to take care of some family stuff. Things obviously went exceedingly well and it wasn’t too long before Sean made the move to Minneapolis to plan a future with Katie.
When it was decided to take the next step to marriage, Sean had it all planned out. They were going to go to Katie’s favorite spot by a willow tree and propose. Katie' didn’t know if he was going to propose, but Katie’s best friend made her go out and get their nails done “Just in Case”. I think we all need a friend like that in our lives. Sean really wanted to go on a walk before their dinner reservation. All afternoon Katie had been sending GIFS on how tired she was. After a little bit of loving encouragement on Sean’s part, Katie finally put on mismatched socks and her Birks for their walk and enjoyed the outdoor air. They walk was anything but leisurely stroll as Katie noted Sean was BOOKING IT. As they finally reached their spot, Sean proposed to Katie and she said yes! A family member were their in the bushes to capture to happy occasion! After dinner a second surprise happened, there was a planned engagement party with all their friends and family.
For our time together at the engagement session, we meet at the Port of Excelsior! It has been an unseasonably warm winter here in Minnesota, but the chill off the water still went straight to the bones. Katie and Sean had the best attitudes! It made our session so fun to just laugh and talk about their upcoming wedding! They really want their wedding day to be a reflection of their faith and glorify God in their action.
