It's finally going to happen....

The couple met in high school through a group of mutual friends. They quite literally had “Chemistry” together, and even though it wasnt their favorite class, they were happy just to see each other. Ben eventually gathered the courage to ask Britney to prom his junior year, and the rest is history.

After ten years together, Britney was more than ready for the big question. On the most beautiful day in January (it finally reached 50°!) Ben took Britney to dinner and suggested taking a walk afterward. Throughout high school the lakefront area in Columbia was a go-to date night spot. There is a large lake with a walking trail around it and many nice restaurants, so it was always a good choice. So as Britney and Ben were walking around lakefront, the sun started to set with a stunning pink and orange sky. Ben saw his opportunity to kneel down and finally ask... “will you marry me?” To this day they still aren’t sure if Britney actually said yes aloud (we’re guessing she got distracted by the sparkle). So she made him ask again later that night, and with a very joyful “yes!” they started their wedding planning journey.
