It’s a weekend Danielle will never forget, a weekend that is so locked into her memory she can still recall it in perfect detail…the song that was playing on the radio on the family’s drive up to Banff (it was Single Ladies by Beyonce and her sister told her to “take it in” but Danielle never got the hint) and she remembers how much to her dismay David pulled her out of Starbucks to walk around the Banff Springs Hotel.  Once they got to the hotel they had some appies in the restaurant and conversation casually turned to engagements and it happened to come up that David was having some problems with getting the ring so Danielle was not holding her breath for any questions to be popped in the near future. After they finished their food they started to walk around and take in some of the sights of the hotel, they came to one room with floor to ceiling windows and gorgeous view of the mountains and David was a little upset that there we so many people in the room, Danielle told him to “chill out” and they went to take some pictures on the balcony.  Danielle was snapping away and when she turned around to tell David it was his turn, there he was down on one knee.  Danielle thought it was some kind of silly joke since he told her he didn’t have the ring and she told him to get up!  David starts to fumble and search around in his pockets and pulls out the ring box, and starts to tell her that he couldn’t imagine a life without her and many many more wonderful things ending with, of course, THE question!!  Lots of crying and so much excitement David forgot to open the ring box and show her the ring that he was not really having trouble getting at all

It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that it’s been a long time coming for these to, as long as I (Becky) have known David he’s loved Danielle and as long as I’ve know Danielle she’s received love letters, notes, emails and texts from David.  They are one of those couples that when you watch them or listen to them banter with each other you just know they are meant to be.  When David popped the question in Banff this year there was probably a collective cheer that rang for these two love birds who were going to be tying the knot!!

We had the pleasure of meeting up with them a few weeks ago for their engagement session and lucky for us these two are okay with some PDA in front of the camera.  The sweet little kisses David left on Danielle’s forehead, the squeezes Danielle gave David when she had her arms wrapped around him, it was cuteness overload!  This session really documents two of the many things they told us they love most about each other, how Danielle fits perfectly into Davids arms (insert awwwe here) and how David makes Danielle laugh.

After all the fun we had at their engagement session we can’t wait for their wedding in November!  Don’t forget to check out some more gorgeous photos in the SLIDESHOW
