We're Getting Married!

Eli and I first met in middle school where we became best friends. He is one of the few who escaped the friend zone, after 5 years. We began dating right out of high school. It is an amazing feeling to be able to be in a relationship with your best friend. He is the most supportive and encouraging person in the world. I am blessed to have him by my side to help me chase my dreams.

Eli had worked with @natashaashleyphotography for months planning this surprise photoshoot. As I prepared for a photo, Eli walked up behind me and said my name. I looked down at his hands where he was holding a handmade, wooden box which had “Marry Me?” stamped on the top. He was speechless and I was completely surprised. After a couple seconds of mutual shock, he got down on one knee and asked if I would marry him! How could I not say YES!? It was like time stood still. He handed me a piece of paper which read, “Hannah, I know we might have to wait a while to get married, but I know that I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I’ve known ever since 8th grade. Hannah Nicole Fields, Will you marry me? (open box).” Turns out, Eli planned the whole photoshoot, with a little help from Natasha, Chey, and my best friend Kaitlyn. We then proceeded to complete our ENGAGEMENT photoshoot with Natasha. The entire day seemed like a dream and I cannot wait to marry my best friend! *See photos to relive the moment!

We owe a big thank you to our family and friends for making this day possible. With me in physical therapy school and Eli's busy schedule, we couldn't have made it without your help. Special thanks goes to our parents. Without their love, support, and monetary assistance... we wouldn't have the wedding of our dreams. You all mean more to us than we could describe. We love you!
