Kisses: How did you two meet?

Mandy & Neal: We met through mutual friends in high school. He came to my school's basketball games where I was a cheerleader and from that point on we became the best of friends.

Kisses: How did he propose?

M&N: We met for dinner after work at one of my favorite restaurants in Savannah, Vic's on the River. Before dinner, while waiting on our table, we went out on one of their balconies overlooking Riverstreet and he proposed! Of course the answer was yes!

Kisses: What do you like best about your spouse?

Mandy: His smile. No matter what kind of mood I may be in he always makes me laugh - he is my best friend!

Kisses: Why did you choose Savannah for your wedding?

M&N: We were both born and raised in Savannah and we love the city. There isn't a more beautiful place!

Kisses: Each of you, please list your top three favorite things about your wedding day and tell why:

Mandy:

1) Seeing Neal when the church doors opened. The moment I saw him I was at ease. I will never forget that moment!

2) Sharing one of the most important days of my life with our friends and family. They mean the world to us.

3) The day - everything was absolutely amazing!

Neal:

1) Marrying my best friend!

2) The reception. The atmosphere, food, everything was amazing.

3) Seeing Mandy at the end of the aisle at the start of our ceremony

If there's one thing you'll notice in all of our wedding story posts, our couples only remember the good! Just a Kisses reminder to make the most of your day and know that you, too, will only remember the best of times and, chances are, if a mishap does happen, it will just become a laughable memory to share for a lifetime! Again, congratulations Mandy and Neal! We wish blessings and happiness to you both.

Kisses for now!
