If the saying “it takes a village” ever rang more true, it would be the day Shayan proposed to Evelyn!

These two are blessed with the best pack of friends and family ever that mean the world to them and Shayan wanted to ensure everyone that could be there would be there!  That took a lot of planning and coordinating just to settle on a date!  Once that was determined then the plan to get her in place had to be hatched!  That is where the “village” came in!

The plan was a surprise birthday picnic at the lake for one of their friends, however, the truth was, the surprise was on Evelyn!  She fell hook, line & sinker for the ruse so much so that when she drove up with her room-mate looking for the “birthday” meet up spot, she said, “oh, look, someone is getting proposed to today!”  Her room-mate, Morgan, just smiled and said, Evelyn, I think you should park here! Evelyn paused in surprise when she saw Shayan standing on the dock with a ring box in hand waiting for her.  Morgan, simply said, give me the keys Evelyn and go, just go.  With happy tears, Evelyn proceeded down the dock to her best friend and love.

So excited to share these photos not only because they were so sweet to capture but because, that sweet blondie girl is mine!  So excited for both of you and the wedding plans to come!  We are so blessed and thankful to welcome Shayan to our family!

Enjoy!

Oh, and BTW, the precious batch of friends and family were all back at home to surprise her for the second time that day!  It was the sweetest celebration!
