Esther and Steve first crossed paths while both working in the Drug Safety Department at Covance. Esther was working on a short contract while Steve was one of the project managers (not Esther's boss!). Upon meeting each other, they had an immediate liking for each other and began to hang out at happy hours. One evening after work, Steve pulled up next to Esther at the stoplight, put his window down and asked Esther to go grab drinks and a quick bite. After some convincing, Esther agreed. After this initial outing, Steve asked for Esther's number and shortly after asked her on a "real" date to Despana in Princeton. The rest is history!
Esther and Steve love to travel and ski together, something they have shared a common interest in since they met! Steve planned a romantic getaway in beautiful Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada to go skiing, hiking and catch up on some much needed relaxation. Steve got down on one knee in front of the world famous Lake Louise and asked Esther to spend the rest of their lives together in a setting most commonly reserved for royalty. The snow was lightly falling and the sun was peeking through the clouds in a most magical moment when Esther said 'Yes'!
