Allison and Hank were ready to find each other by the time they met in early June of 2023, and they fell quickly in love that summer. Right before Labor day weekend, Hank left for a 9 month deployment in Eastern Europe. Allison and Hank spent most of their relationship doing international long distance, FaceTiming around 3pm EST when Allison was painting in her studio and Hank was drifting to sleep on base at 10pm his time. Hank returned early June of 2024 to Savannah, and proposed to Allison in July- even though she killed his ferns while he was deployed. Since Hank’s return, it’s been a whirlwind of laughter, love, and learning how to build a beautiful life together. They are so grateful for the gift of having each other. The prayer is that this wedding weekend is full of beauty, joy, and a celebration of God's specific kindness.
