October 2017 bride and groom Raquel and Curtis are just the breath of fresh air that we needed today!  The couple met on Halloween night 2009 and now, 8 years later, they are tying the knot!

From Coordinated Bride Raquel

I was attending Virginia State University and it was homecoming weekend. My girls & I were throwing a Halloween party and one of the girls invited a guy she was dating at the time. That guy brought a group of friends, and Curtis happened to be one of them. We talked a couple times throughout the night but it wasn’t until after he left that we started to really get to know each other through phone calls & text messages. We spent a year getting to know each other long distance before we decided to become a couple. Six years later, he finally popped the question! We were laying in bed after a long day of Memorial Day cookouts and my nephews birthday party. Curtis walked over to my side of the bed with a little white box and at that moment I knew it was happening! I don’t even think I let him finish before I said YES!!!

We are sending Congrats and well wishes to Raquel & Curtis.    Rhea Whitney Photography has provided us with a access to their DC engagement shoot.  Happy wedding countdown!
