Inspiration for The Proposal: Joel and Olivia Sigler

The Proposal: Joel and Olivia Sigler depicts the day my cousin, Joel Sigler, proposed to his lovely wife Olivia. They were married on May 28th and the two began their new lives as Mr. and Mrs. Sigler. The proposal obviously set the stage for all the joy and felicity to follow—and what better subject could there be as a gift for the newlyweds? :-D The scene is located at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky: a marvelous school where both individuals attend. The groom-to-be’s younger brother, along with several friends, worked diligently during the afternoon to wrap the university’s beloved gingko tree in classy white lights to set a magical stage for the enactment of this quintessential step of romance. Obviously she said yes, and the two are a now month into happily ever after!
