Engagement: Jen and Marie

We received an email from Jen who shared with us some beautiful photos of her proposal to her partner and future wife Marie.  We love to post engagement, wedding and anniversary announcements on the Say I Do! Facebook page, its just part of what we do. While we normally only post one picture of the couple we had to make an exception, we couldn't choose among the pictures Jen sent over, so we are posting them all here!

Congratulations to the beautiful couple this is an awesome proposal!

Jen and Marie were engaged in Hollywood Hills near the Hollywood sign. Jen proposed to the love of her life, Marie on March 8, 2013.  The couple hails from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania!

3 cheers for Jen and Marie!
