IAN & RACHEL
Chicago, IL • Oct 12 2025
How They Met
After being elected to the same student government position (yes, they are aware how very cool that is), Ian and Rachel started working together.
They were trying to keep things business casual, but they could both tell that there was something between them. One night in October 2018, they went on a walk in Beacon Hill, a beautiful neighborhood near campus. While wandering, they planned their very first date — the Winnie the Pooh exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts.
Six years later, Ian surprised Rachel with a trip back to Boston. He’d spent months working on a handmade engagement ring. On another walk through Beacon Hill, he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. She said yes!
They are looking forward to celebrating with you!
