We’ve made the decision to exchange vows during a private ceremony, but we can’t wait to celebrate with everyone afterwards!

It all started with a love story, not their own! Ben and Laurel connected at mutual friend’s wedding that ended with Laurel asking Ben if he wanted to share her uber home at 2am knowing his car was close to her house. However, he ended up falling asleep on her couch that night and the rest is history! Fast forward almost 3 years later, and on a family trip to Hawaii, Ben decided it was time. After a fun electric bike ride, and some would say a not so fun hike up diamond head, Ben just handed Laurel a box and said, “here, put this on.” To which he was asked “isn’t there a question that goes with this?” The reply? “Why would I ask a question I already know the answer to?” And with that Laurel and Ben were engaged 💍
