EnGAYged Weddings & Engagements: The Grad Student & The Chef Turned Educator



      In this installment of A Monique Affair "EnGAYged" weddings, we meet MacKenzie Moore and Lucia (Lucy) Brosgart who are a beautiful couple from the East Bay. MacKenzie is currently a grad student at UC Berkeley, while Lucy is pursuing a new career as a birth doula and childbirth educator, after working for years as a professional chef. Here we share a few of their engagement shots and share a little bit about how Lucy popped the big question... Featuring photography by Laura Turbow of Laura Turbow Photography.


The Story: Mackenzie and Lucy met while they were both students at Oberlin College. After some courting, they finally began dating during their final year in 2002. They have been dating ever since, that is until a very curious night that happened in 2005...



The Proposal: One beautiful evening in 2005 Lucy and Mackenzie took a late night walk, in which Lucy declared her lover for MacKenzie and expressed her desire to be with her forever. Lucy asked MacKenzie to marry her on this night, and while MacKenzie knew that she wanted to spend her life with no one but Lucy, her first inclination was to say no. Lucy was persistent and over time MacKenzie says her heart warmed to the idea. They were married in 2008.
