HOW THEY MET
Megan first heard Bobby’s name seven years ago when a mutual friend suggested, “Hey, I think you’d really like this guy I know.” Little did she know, another mutual friend told Bobby the exact same thing! While both were reluctant to meet, fearing that a set-up would feel too forced, they eventually agreed to meet in the company of their mutual friends.
As it turns out, they were right! It felt too forced and awkward, and Megan assumed she would never hear from Bobby again…but, of course, she was wrong. A few weeks later Bobby messaged Megan on Facebook and asked to taker her out on a real date, one where they would actually have the opportunity to get to know each other one-on-one. Megan agreed and two days later, when they met for their first official date, things were much different.
The two felt sparks immediately as they joked over a game of mini-golf (which Megan won) and shared stories over their favorite ice creams - chocolate chip mint and cotton candy. Then, to top it off, Bobby took Megan to a local lake where they watched the stars together and shared a romantic kiss! The two have pretty much been inseparable ever since!
THE PROPOSAL
After six years of dating, both Megan and Bobby knew that things were getting serious and felt ready to take the next step. Bobby racked his brain for the best way to pop the question and decided to recreate their first date — right down to every last perfect detail. The problem was that it was too perfect and, since Megan knew Bobby all too well, she guessed his plan before he had the chance to execute it.This sent Bobby right back to the drawing board, questioning the best way to propose without Megan figuring it out.
Finally he settled on a fall proposal at the Warwick Valley Winery and Distillery, where the two frequently visited throughout the years. Bobby popped the question to Megan in the orchards while apple picking, and Megan enthusiastically said yes! The pair then celebrated over a bottle of wine before meeting with their family and friends at a surprise engagement party to celebrate!!
THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION
To Megan and Bobby is felt like a no-brainer to return to Warwick Valley Winery and Distillery, where Bobby proposed, to photograph their engagement session. The couple have many fond memories there and wanted to capture their love story at some of their favorite locations around the town — the Warwick Valley Winery, Pennings Farm, and the Warwick Drive-In Theater.
Their engagement session was fabulous, and they brought their new puppy along for the fun, Charlie. They will celebrate their beautiful wedding next July at the gorgeous Sky View Golf Club and I cannot wait! Congratulations Bobby and Megan!
