On a rainy Friday the 13th in Gig Harbor, Washington, Dylan got down on one knee and asked Hannah to spend forever with him. With the picturesque harbor as their backdrop and raindrops falling like confetti, he pulled off the perfect proposal more than 2,000 miles from home.

Hannah's Advice to Brides

Don’t stress the small stuff. I am extremely type A, but found myself taking a huge step back from wedding planning (it also helped my venue did everything for me:) but at the end of the day, I wasn’t stressed about florals or table arrangements, because I knew I got to marry my person. That’s what everything is all about at the end of the day. Soak it all in, because it’ll fly by and be intentional about being present in this season of life!
