I’m so excited to share Madeline & Brendan’s Engagement Session on the blog today!
Madeline & Brendan’s Story
On the evening of July 12, 2019, Madeline gathered with a group of her friends at her apartment in Manayunk. They planned to go to Mad River (RIP) to meet up with a friend from work, Brendan McLaughlin (not to be mistaken with Brendan O’Neil), and his group of friends. Brendan McLaughlin introduced her to Brendan O’Neil letting her know it was his birthday (it was not). For the rest of the night, Brendan and Madeline followed each other around Manayunk, laughing, dancing, and climbing stop signs along the way. The next day, Brendan asked Madeline on their very first date, and the rest is history!
The Proposal!
This past February, Brendan & Madeline had plans to go to lunch with Brendan’s mom one evening. Brendan suggested they take a walk beforehand at Peace Valley Park, where Madeline frequents a few times a week. Madeline said “I was not wearing my walking shoes so I knew something was up!” After walking for a short while, they reached the end of the dam and Brendan got down on one knee and asked her to marry him! Madeline said yes and was surprised that her entire family from Kansas was there to surprise her!
Madeline & Brendan’s wedding is taking place next spring at The Hotel Du Village in New Hope, PA! They’re excited for the spring wedding and hoping it will feel like an english garden! Here are some of my favorites from their engagement session!
