Kent proposed at Manny’s Steakhouse, one of the couple’s favorite restaurants in the Twin Cities. He was pretty nervous for most of the meal, which gave Sarah a good idea of what was going on. Kent excused himself before dessert to “use the restroom,” and gave the engagement ring to their waiter. When the waiter came back, he lifted the silver dome, which was supposed to be covering their delectable dessert of banana cream pie, but instead, there was a ring on the plate! Kent then got down on one knee, said he loved Sarah and asked her to marry him. Sarah, of course, said yes. They are getting married on the same day that Sarah’s parents and grandparents also got married. On their wedding day, Sarah’s parents will be married 33 years, and her grandparents will be married 61 years.

The engagement shoot took place at the Hartley Nature Center in Duluth, MN. It was a beautiful time of year to be outside immersed in the fall colors, and it was the perfect day to celebrate the love that Kent and Sarah have for each other.
