Inna, 26, is an attorney at Clifford Chance. Ben, 26, is a policy analyst for the Minerals Management Service at the Department of the Interior. They live in Washington, D.C.

» The Main Event: Rabbi Jeffrey Wohlberg will officiate a ceremony on Jan. 10 at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in D.C. The couple plan to incorporate a number of Russian customs.

» First Impressions: "I heard that he was a playboy and would never leave his then-girlfriend." "She was very pretty, but I was dating someone else."

» Most Hated Clothing Item: "I could die a happy man if she burned every piece of clothing she still wears that she had in middle school. Shouldn't clothing have an expiration date? I like to wear ties at home. Needless to say, we have differing styles."

» How He Proposed: "We got up early to go biking in Rock Creek Park. We got out to the rocks by the Park Police station near Military Road, where the creek bends sharply and the sun hits the water in an amazing sparkle in the morning. Looking out at the creek, I asked her if she would marry me."

» Their Song: "She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5. Ben says, "Inna might say it's ‘You Can't Always Get What You Want' by the Rolling Stones."

» Her Dress: A custom design by Israel's Pnina Tournei.

» Wedding Fears: Says Ben, "That Inna's dad will incorporate their two dogs into the ceremony. The Dexters' dogs are notoriously difficult to travel with. Ernie the mini-poodle gets carsick, and Laci the cocker spaniel has bladder control issues."
