Carol & Sung {Balboa Park, San Diego}

"Only by the sovereignty of God..."

Carol & Sung have one of my favorite love stories.

When Sung asked Carol if he had a chance she told him that it was only by the sovereignty of God. Clearly, it was...because here they are, getting married in May.

Carol has become a sister near & dear to my heart...first bonding over a common love for the Lakers & Anthropologie and now she's someone who I trust to point me to Christ. Through serving together in Sister connection @ LBC we got know each other better and it was actually right before a staff meeting (via facebook) that I found out Sung had asked her to marry him! She stepped in through my front door and though I tried to help it, I looked straight down at her left hand. Lo and behold, there was a beautiful ring on her finger and a sheepish smile on her face.

Getting to be a part of their big day by helping coordinate has been a privilege and I was really really honored when she and Sung wanted me to take some engagement photos in Balboa Park, where they had their first date, and where he almost proposed.

I got to see a playful/affectionate side of them that I had yet to experience and by the end of the day, I had a very full smile on my face. I was so blessed by their company and generosity... no doubt in my heart that God had sovereignly brought a kind, faithful and God-loving man into Carol's life in his perfect timing. I've already posted some of my favorites.... but enjoy the rest!

So much fun on the trolley driving into Balboa park. :)

Clang, clang, clang went the trolley

Ding, ding, ding went the bell

Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings...

I was in love with this tree. Absolutely lovely moment when the petals from the tree started falling upon Carol & Sung.

The Prado....where Sung was originally going to propose...but God had other plans for them. :)

I'd say Carol is ready to become Sung's Mrs. Megabyte

I'm so so so happy for you both and can't wait until your big day!
