Mark and John Paul met at Freddy’s Wine Bar in Birmingham in May 2021. They were inseparable after the first date and after dating a little over a year, they knew they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together. Mark proposed to John Paul in June 2022 on the beach in Navarre.
Advice From the Couple
“Enjoy the entire process from planning to wedding day. It’s so fun and goes by way too fast! The best decision we made was hiring our planner Handley Breaux Designs. Their team held our hands the entire way. We wouldn’t change one thing.” – Mark and John Paul
