laura + bryan | an artful engagement at avam with their dog
I met up with Laura and Bryan (and their #urbanrowpup, Marlow!) on a bright January day at the American Visionary Art Museum near the Inner Harbor and Fed Hill park. We chose this location knowing it was still very much winter outside and because of the mosaic facade at AVAM and all the harborfront views, you wouldn’t be able to tell there were no leaves on the trees or flowers in bloom!
I’m just so excited to be around these two – they have such a natural connection and are so sweet together, radiating happiness and love!
And here’s how the proposal happened – I love how they both had a hand in planning the proposal trip in their own way for each other!
Laura planned a fall trip to Asheville with very little input from Bryan. About a week before the trip, Bryan said he didn’t know any details and wanted to know where we were staying, eating, and what exactly we were doing. Little did Laura know, Bryan was planning the proposal. He even had a new selfie stick shipped to the hotel in preparation for the moment. The day we were leaving, Laura happened to mention to Bryan that he never takes photos – setting Bryan up for the perfect excuse as to why he had a new selfie stick shipped to the hotel. Fast forward to our first full day of the trip, we had plans to go for a hike. After breakfast at a local spot known for their biscuits (where Bryan left the ring in the car…!), we headed to the mountain. Half way through, overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains, Bryan set up the new selfie stick to capture some photos. Right then and there he said “I have a very important to question to ask you”…and the rest is history!
Laura and Bryan, you have been so thoughtful, attentive, organized and fun to get to know throughout the wedding planning process, I can not wait to see how your spring wedding comes together at The Loom – the first wedding at this new Baltimore venue! Let’s go and get you two married!!!
xo,
Naomi
