Emily Jeanette Price and Robert Macon Phillips III

Emily Jeanette Price and Robert Macon Phillips III were married on May 30th, in Shelburne, Vermont.

The bride, 29, was born in San Francisco to Mary Price and Gerhard Stoll.  Long-time Potrero Hill dwellers may remember her playing in the back of her mother’s flower shop, now Christopher’s Books.  Emily attended Lowell High School, graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from Middlebury College, and received her masters degree, with honors, in City and Regional Planning from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. She now works as a financial analyst for Enterprise Community Investment, a national organization that specializes in financing affordable housing.

The bridegroom, 30, is a special assistant to President Barack Obama and serves as the White House’s Director of New Media.  A Huntsville, Alabama native, he’s the son of Dr. and Mrs. Robert Macon Phillips, Jr.  After receiving his bachelor’s degree from Duke University, Macon spent two years in California, including one living on Russian Hill.

The couple will continue to live in Washington, DC.
