Melanie & Tom

Date Engaged

Oct 17, 2009

Where did you meet? 

Mutual friend set us up, we went to a black tie event at the Zoo for our first date

How did he propose?

He had setup a birthday trip for me to Chateau Elan, a vineyard/resort in Georgia.  At dinner I was told my birthday dessert was in another part of the building, and I walked into this room and he had arranged for an art gallery to be lit with candles and have a table and two chairs in the middle.  I started crying immediately, but thought it was still just a bug birthday surprise.  We sat down and he turned the bottle of wine towards me and the label said "Tom & Melanie, Engagement Night October 17."   It was amazing.

When is your wedding date?

Oct 16, 2010

Why did you pick the area you are getting married in? 

We always loved Savannah, and thought it was a great "destination" place that also wasn't too far from Atlanta.

Where do you reside now? 

Atlanta

SOOOO Sweet! I love it and what a great keepsake for you…I bet that was the best bottle of wine ever!  We cannot wait for the big day!
