Engagement Date June 14, 2014
Wedding Date January 24, 2015

How did you two meet? (In Brandy’s Words)
We actually met on Match.com. My co-worker convinced me to try it out and it did not take long before I met Leon. We went on our first date at Intelligentsia Coffee in Old Pasadena. We stood there for hours talking. It was a great first date.

How did he propose?
We just got home from celebrating his Birthday and I went to change my clothes and when I got back, he hugged me and got down on one knee. I didn’t even give him a chance to say much. I blurted out, “of course!” I really didn’t see that coming.

What do you love most about your Engagement Ring?
I love color! So instead of a diamond I opted for a sapphire. It is a custom made engagement ring with an oval antique cut padparadschra Chatham sapphire. It is more on the orange side than the pink and it looks fantastic!

Leon knew Brandy wanted something unique! He presented her with a custom designed oval cut padparadschra Chatham sapphire from Robbins Brothers (well of course).
