“Cole and I grew up in different small towns. We attended rival high schools and met my senior year through mutual friends. I was a grade ahead of Cole and was soon leaving for college. Fast forward to my sophomore year of college, we ran into each other in Auburn and let’s just say the rest is history. Cole proposed shortly after graduating from Auburn University. He did so in a way that was fun, memorable, and adrenaline-packed. We headed down to our annual beach trip with friends. I planned for us to stop and go skydiving on the way down. I had already jumped before, but wanted Cole to experience it as well. Cole then called the company behind my back and planned the big proposal. Cole jumped first and as soon as I broke through the crowds, I saw a big banner on the ground that said, ‘Will you marry me?'” – Savannah
Advice From the Bride
“Hiring a wedding planner was my best decision. It truly makes the entire planning process so less stressful and fun. My florist also took my husband and me through a viewing of our venue to see how everything had come together. We did this after our first look and it was so special to see all of the small details and everything completed before the rush of the wedding started.” – Savannah
