How to Propose in Savannah: Romantic Marriage Proposal Ideas

Connor & Alexis's Proposal Story in Savannah

How did you meet?

School

What is your love story?

Alexis and I met early on in college. For her, it was pretty quick. She notified her mother that she had met the one shortly after our first interaction. However, friendship is what our relationship remained through college and for years after. At one point, we caught up over dinner and that friendship grew deeper and eventually into a relationship. For me, the realization that she was was the one was a gradual process. Everything was easy with her. My family loved her and she just fit in and added to my life. I began to realize that I cared more than I thought I did and from there I knew she was the one. Our 9 years of friendship set the perfect foundation for our life together. And, I mean she is beautiful, so who wouldn’t want to marry her!?

What made you choose this proposal destination?

Every year Alexis and I take a trip to a new destination and this year it was Savannah, Georgia. I had the ring and it was a moment that we were able to escape our hectic lives making it the perfect time to propose.

What is your proposal story?

We woke up on our first day of vacation with plans of simply going to a nice brunch. She got all dressed up and off we went! On our way to the brunch we walked through the beautiful Forsyth Park. As we approached the beautiful fountain, we couldn’t help but take photos together. As we tried to take a selfie in front of the fountain, Hilary (our flytographer posing as a random person offering to take our photo for us) started to take our photo. At that point I shared that the day was not just about brunch but that it was a big day for the two of us. I proceeded to get down on one knee and ask Alexis for her hand in marriage. From there Hilary snapped the most beautiful photos of the moment… AND she said “YES!” We explored the scenery while taking some beautiful photos throughout the park. Afterwards, we enjoyed a wonderful brunch at Collins Quarter and spent the rest of the week exploring Savannah, Georgia.
