A Warm Notre Dame Engagement Session: The Engagement of Misty and Jon

When Misty came to cheer on her friends at their basketball games, she had no idea she'd be cheering on her future husband, too! As a player on the basketball team, Jon quickly caught Misty's eye. During a tournament after-party, the pair hit it off and haven’t stopped talking since. Jon popped the question to Misty when the pair was in Punta Cana during New Years Eve. What a way to kick off the new year!

Misty’s friends advised Jon on what ring to buy, but he ultimately made the decision on his own. Even though it was far from what Misty expected, she loved it the instant she saw it!

This couple knew they wanted their outfits to reflect the venue they were taking photos in, but they had a hard time nailing the right look. They ended up choosing clothes that had a casual, laid-back look, bought the night before in a last-minute shopping trip! Misty adds, “We knew we wanted to have our engagement photos done at Notre Dame in the fall with all of the beautiful colors it has to offer. We chose tans and mustard yellow so it would blend well with all of the gorgeous sights of Notre Dame!”

Misty and Jon’s wedding planning caught a snag when their original venue abruptly closed their doors, but the pair has been able to stay flexible through it all. “We had to change our date and thankfully our photographer and DJ were available for our new date,” Misty admits. “Besides the stress of having to find a new venue and caterer, planning has been fun.”
