I love a marriage proposal because it’s such a joyous occasion. This day featuring Saaid and Deepika at the Musem of Glass in Tacoma was big and beautiful and drew supportive strangers who were very happy to watch the proceedings from nearby apartment balconies and waterfront promontories. Saaid did a marvelous job planning the occasion with assistance from Blue Wings Events, who I’ve had the pleasure of working with many times before. With lighted four foot tall letters, red balloons, rose petals, and the gorgeous Tacoma backdrop, Deepika walked into a proposal that would melt any heart. After the proposal, their friend group was all smiles and we captured some fun group photos for them. I made sure to take portraits of Saaid and Deepika around the museum after the big event. Best wishes and congratulations to this awesome couple!
