Featured Couple: Mackenna & Chance
We are so thrilled to be part of Mackenna and Chance’s special day this May! They are one of the sweetest couples you could ever meet! Learn more about them here.
Where was your first date?
Our first real date was definitely more of a chill day where we could just sit and talk and learn more about each other. It consisted of us eating lunch at Panera Bread, shopping, and ending the day with some ice cream from Dairy Queen!
How did he propose?
We planned a day to go to Southeast Way Park before the weather officially stayed cold and do a bible study. So he picked me up in the morning and drove us there. He decided we should go on a walk and scope out a good area to sit and read our bibles together. I figured something had to be up his sleeve as he said we would come back for the Bible’s (whats a bible study without a bible??) As we were walking, we turned a slight corner and all I could see was hundreds of rose petals leading up to the cutest setup! There were two blankets spread out on the ground covered in rose petals and pictures of us throughout our four years together. Picture frames of scripture, pumpkins, and sparkling cider were also laid out on the blanket. As we walked up I noticed the ring sitting on a bed of rose petals with a handwritten note beside it. He grabbed my hands and began to tell me all the reasons why he loved me and wanted to marry me. He popped the question and of course I said yes! However, to my surprise, I could hear a “click” coming from around us and I instantly spotted our best friends that live an hour and a half away in the tree line snapping pictures of us! The four of us ate lunch together and shared in the excitement of what the future would hold for us two! It was a great day to spend with him and our closest friends and family.
What is your favorite part of being engaged?
My favorite part about being engaged would probably have to be getting a glimpse into marriage as we learn to communicate and give God the glory together!
What are you looking forward to most about the wedding?
I am looking forward to spending the day with so many loved ones around us, but ultimately being able to finally say he is mine and I am his forever and to start our life together!
Where are you going on your honeymoon?
We are flying down to Bonita Springs in Florida and maybe even swinging by Disney World for a day or two!
