Kristin and Chris both participate in CrossFit, defined as “a strength and conditioning program based on broadly varied, functional movements performed at high intensity that is universally scalable for all levels of fitness.” The first part of their engagement session took place at CrossFit King of Prussia, where Chris is an instructor. We had a lot of fun learning about the program, and not only did Kristin and Chris get some engagement photos done, but they also got a little workout in as well!
After the gym, we headed to Villanova University, where Kristin and Chris met during their Freshman year of college. While we were touring the campus, they shared a fun fact about the “Whispering Arches” at Corr Hall. The rumor is an engineering student proposed to his girlfriend by whispering through the arches. If you whisper into a groove on one side, it can be heard in the same archway on the other side. We tried it ourselves, and it really works!
In the photos at Villanova, you may notice that Kristin and Chris are both wearing TOMS shoes. For every pair of shoes you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. Chris proposed to Kristin by attaching her engagement ring to a pair of shoes from the TOMS bridal collection.
It was awesome getting to know Kristin and Chris, and we can’t wait for their wedding in July!
