We met up with Janna & Aaron a few months ago to capture their everything Gainesville-themed engagement session. Started in the SWAMP aka Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (Go Gators!) and took time around the beautiful campus. These two tailGATORS were precious and we LOVED the backwards hat in the back of her man’s pick-up truck photos! Then we moved onto ‘The Social’ where they first shared their first kiss, formerly known as ‘Gator City!’ We absolutely LOVE how these images turned out and we cannot wait to capture more pretty pictures and memories for them on October 20th of this year. . the Gators BYE week of course! ;) Janna & Aaron are getting married at Daughter’s Barn in Folkston, GA.
Enjoy a little Q+A as well as their love story through photographs.
How did you two meet?
“We met through walking down the aisle together at our friend Sam & Kaitlin’s wedding. ”
When did you two meet?
“We met in January of 2014.”
How long have y’all been together?
“Our first date was 3 years ago on October 4th! ”
How did you know he was the one?
“I don’t think I really had one specific moment, but I just felt at home with him and I knew he was my person!”
How did you know she was the one?
“I definitely knew when she met my parents and immediately clicked with my family. Five minutes into dinner, Janna was sharing two pitchers of margaritas and exchanging phone numbers with my Mom!”
When was the first kiss?
“Well. . . it was before our first date! Whoops! It was South Carolina weekend of 2014! We’d lost that game and went out to Gator City with Cassie and Drew as friends— Aaron kissed me in XS while we were all out together. It’s now where the Social is, so anytime we go there I always remind him!”
How did he propose?
“Janna messed up those plans! I’d planned on proposing and surprising her at work, but Lena was born and she went down to meet her! I ended up proposing in her parent’s living room and her first response was, “are you kidding me?””
What is your favorite thing about each other?
“She’s changed a lot about me. She’s changed my house, and my outlook and she pushes me to be a better person inside and out. She’s also made me more family oriented.”
“He can always always make me laugh and helps calm my worrying that I tend to do often!”
What are you most looking forward to at the wedding?
“Whiskey bar! Just kidding! The atmosphere at Daughter’s Barn and seeing a certain brunette in a white dress walking down the aisle!”
“The first look! He has guessed about my dress, but him seeing it for the first time gives me goosebumps thinking about it! I’m going to be ready to see my honey and become his Mrs!”
“This was fun! We’ve been trying to take time and not just plan a wedding but a marriage and a future. So it was fun to answer these kind of questions!”
Now you see why we absolutely ADORE this couple! The countdown is on for October 20th! See you guys in Folkston, GA so soon!
XOXO,
B+W
