Wedding Date August
21, 2021 Sarah, a UNC-Chapel Hill and Elon University alumna, works as a document review attorney for Dauntless Discovery. Abraham, a University of South Carolina alumnus, is a software engineer at Tanium in Morrisville. Crossed Paths Sarah and Abraham met at a mutual friend’s party in 2013. “I looked toward the kitchen, and our eyes met,” Sarah says. “I couldn’t miss him. He was one of the tallest people there.” They built a friendship over six years until January 2019, when Sarah got up the courage to ask him out on a date. The couple knew they wanted to spend forever together after only a few months of dating. Occupations
The Proposal On
Aug. 22, 2019, during the Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Festival in Cary, Sarah decided she couldn’t wait any longer. She proposed that night with a ring that Abraham had pointed out a few weeks prior. A month later the couple went on a hiking trip in Oregon where Abraham planned a counter-proposal. “It was the most beautiful and scenic place at Crater Lake National Park,” Sarah says. Abraham got down on one knee and asked her to marry him with a ring that’s been in Sarah’s family for more than 95 years. Now, “I Do” The couple set their wedding date for August 2020, but the pandemic altered their original plans. Sarah and Abraham instead opted for a small, intimate ceremony in Clemmons, North Carolina, with only immediate family. When it’s safe to do so, they will hold a reception at the Old Murphey School to dance, sing and celebrate their nuptials with extended family and friends.
