Wedding Date on Apr 26, 2019

Danielle and Stephen first saw each other when they were fifteen at a high school opening game at Met Life Stadium. It was just in passing, Danielle was walking down the stadium stairs and Stephen was walking up where he stopped her and asked her name. Danielle was shy at the time, and he appeared older than her so she laughed and brushed him off. Little did she know, this would be the man she eventually would marry. And if you ask Stephen, he would tell you that he knew all along. They ended up meeting again through mutual friends in high school. Danielle attended an all girls catholic school, Holy Angels, and he attended an all boys catholic school St. Joseph in Montvale. Once they were together, they were inseparable. They stayed together through college – Danielle was in Washington DC and Stephen was up in Ithaca NY. She is now in Medical School in DC and Stephen has moved down to be with her. They are coming up on their 9 year anniversary and they have been together through it all. Stephen and Danielle got engaged on a beautiful fall afternoon in Central Park. Stephen had set up on appointment to trick her into going into the city with him to look at rings at a shop she had been following on Instagram. After looking at rings and not seeing anything she loved, Stephen suggested they meet his young nephews in Central Park for some ice skating. As they made out way over, Stephen took Danielle down memory lane of their already 10 year relationship. Once they entered the park, Stephen grabbed her hand and took her to the most beautiful quiet spot with The Plaza Hotel in the background. He pulled her tight, told her how much he loved her and got on one knee with the most beautiful ring. After Danielle said yes, Stephen had arranged for her parents and her best friend to surprise her at the Plaza for tea. “It was amazing. As if the surprises were not enough, the next day I walked into a surprise engagement party with all of our friends and family! The whole weekend was a whirlwind.”
