Couple staying busy before big day

SEMINOLE - Talk about a whirlwind romance.

Lisa Evensen and Benjamin Stein have a lot to look forward to, but there is a lot of work that needs to get done before they get married.

We checked in on the two lovers you might remember from our previous Good Day Salute.

"All right, Lisa, tuck your head right in next to Ben," photographer Angela Sackett said recently when we check in with them. "Ben, drop your head next to hers ... Good.”

The two were getting engagement photos. They lucked out on the day with great weather – love and luck on their side.

Lisa is stationed at MacDill Air Force Base. She's the one who got a free wedding dress at an event sponsored by MacDill and The Bay Area Bridal Association.

Fiance Ben is former German Navy. And they just recently won a $40,000 wedding in a Military for Matrimony contest.

So it's now three months to go before the big day, and they're excited to head into the holidays, their first as an engaged couple.

And just like any other couple planning a wedding at times, things can get stressful.

"I think its going to be really busy," Lisa said. "Everything is moving at light speed.. [We're just trying to] stay as... "

"Postive." Ben chimes in.

She looks at him and smiles, continuing on, "Focused, as peaceful as possible and enjoy the ride,” she said.

They've been engaged just a few weeks, so it's understandable. Ben and Lisa are set to marry Jan. 30. She's stationed in Washington State after that and the two will move with their son out west.

We're following them along the way here and there, so stay tuned for another update.
