While Elizabeth and Erik had crossed paths several times as Capitol Hill staffers, they never met until they were introduced by mutual friends during Snowmaggedon in 2010. Several years later, Erik finished law school and took Elizabeth on what she thought was a well-deserved beach vacation. To her surprise, on their last night of the trip, Erik proposed at sunset on Sanibel Island - dolphins flipping in the background and all! 

We can't wait to celebrate with them next month at our new favorite wedding venue in Washington, D.C. - District Winery! But in the meantime, check out their engagement session at the U.S. Capitol and Southeast Waterfront with the talented Jalapeno Photography

Babe, let’s get one thing clear
There’s much more stardust when you’re near
I think I’m really being sincere
I want a new life,
With you
