A Dreamy Engagement Session at Nemours Estate

Daniel & Sydney

We recently met up with Daniel and Sydney for their dreamy engagement session at Nemours Estate in Wilmington, Delaware. It was so incredible. We had the very best weather of the year so far, and the place all to ourselves… except for the 3 little old ladies who were clearly tourist that were taking pictures of all the gates and gardens. Daniel and Sydney were both nervous at the beginning, but they turned that awkward feeling into laughter and by the 20 minute mark, they were complete naturals. We ended up wandering around Nemours for 90 minutes before popping over to Torbert Street Social, a bar in Wilmington, for a few photos. This place was a serious vibe, and we ended the session with a little bit of champagne to celebrate.

Q: Tell us your story. How did the proposal happen?

We started our vacation, sailing the Greek islands for 10 days. On June 6, 2022 we docked in Mykonos. Dan took me out on the pier in front of all the white building and beautiful bright blue water! I had no idea until he grabbed my hand and I could feel him shaking. At that moment i was like omg it’s happening! He then got down on one knee! I was in shocked! My jaw dropped and I started jumping up and down! Dan said he was so nervous, he couldn’t sleep for days! It was the best day!

Q: What’s the best part about being engaged?

It’s exciting to start our own little family just the two of us for now! Also being able to share it with all our family and friends and getting so excited for the wedding!

Q: Any advice for other couples planning their own weddings?

Don’t rush the planning process! Take it day by day and enjoy it! It’s so fun being able to plan your dream wedding!

To Daniel & Sydney:

We had the very best time with you both! Thanks for powering through some of that awkward energy up front and completely crushing it on camera! You were both so much fun to photograph, and we seriously cannot wait to do it all over again later this year! Until then, we hope you enjoy this little sneak peek of your dreamy engagement session at Nemours Estate!
