Whitney and Errol met while they were students at Florida International University and just couldn’t get away from each other – literally. They found each other at virtually every turn and corner. Eventually, they decided that they belonged together and are now going steady. This totally out-of-the-box engagement session was photographed by Cendino Teme. It’s an e-session like you’ve never seen ;).

The Proposal ….. “The night he proposed, I had been begging him the entire week to take me to Morton’s Steakhouse; he finally agreed and we ended up going to dinner on August 18, 2011. After dinner, we walked towards the car to leave, and I was actually surprised to see him following me towards the passenger side of the car (maybe a week prior, I had teased him about how he never opens my door anymore). He started acting a little weird and started telling me how he feels about me, etc. At this point, I was wondering what was taking him so long to open my door. Within a split second, he dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him.”

Future Wedding Plans ….. “We have not started the planning process but hope to start planning soon. The challenges will most definitely be compromising on what we both want as we have different tastes and styles. We will jump the broom on our special day as a way to pay homage to our African ancestors. This element (the broom) is an important cultural tradition as it symbolizes new beginnings and the joining of two families.”
