We are both school teachers in Atlanta, Georgia. We met on a dating app called Bumble. Our first date was 12 hours long; the date began with lunch at La Parrilla Mexican restaurant, Top Golf, and then dinner at a popular restaurant in Atlanta, Georgia called Six Feet Under.
After six months of dating, we went on our first major trip to Acapulco, Mexico in February and loved it! We dated for almost 2 years and Sean proposed on our impromptu trip to Cancun Valentine’s Day weekend 2021.
We chose Acapulco because it was our first trip together and we immediately felt a connection to this amazing city.
We chose Banyan Tree Cabo Marqués because of the impeccable 5 star service and wanted 5 star service for our wedding. We made the decision to host our wedding there after a short stay. The wedding coordinating team started the planning process seamlessly. It was an incredible experience.
Wedding highlights
- Our favorite moment of wedding planning was the tasting of the buffet. It had all of our favorite dishes and more. It was delicious and high quality.
- Our favorite moment of the wedding day was when I walked down the aisle, the fireworks, our guests experiencing the buffet and romantic scene of the sunset.
- Our best advice for future couples: choose a destination that is special to you. Make your own magic. Choose what makes you happy for your special day.
I have dreamt of my wedding day my whole life and still my wedding day exceeded my expectations. It truly was the best day of our lives and we will be celebrating our anniversary at Banyan Tree for the foreseeable future.
