Philip (cousin) and Brigette are quite the DC power couple. He’s now a Georgetown PR grad student (after a stint working on the CHIP lobby) and she now works for a fund-raising firm (after a stint raising money for the DNC).
They met working on a Democratic campaign in Oklahoma City after college. And even though a Democratic candidate rarely wins in the Sooner state… their love did. Politics was the reception theme – they even had a voting booth where you could choose if you wanted them to stay in DC or move back to Oklahoma.
Now they are honeymooning in Greece, the birthplace of democracy.
Ryan enjoyed the voting booth – notice the stickers.
Voting is sewius.

Obama even came to the after party.

I like how the President really stepped up the evening wear at the after party and donned the red carnation in his lapel. Classy!
So who one? DC or OK?

We don’t know yet! Votes will be tallied soon. I hope for no hanging chads.
