Anne Arundel County Executive Steve Schuh and local businesswoman Dania Blair were married Thursday evening in Annapolis.

The couple wed during a private ceremony, with their parents and children attending, at St. Mary's Church. Schuh and Blair met at a symphony gala in 2007, according to a news release from Schuh's office.

The couple began dating several months later when Blair testified before Maryland House of Delegates Economic Matters Committee that then-Delegate Schuh served on, the news release says.

The couple are planning to split their time between Gibson Island and Annapolis.
