Our Wedding

They met their sophomore year of college at SUNY Geneseo. They happened to live a floor apart from one another and met through mutual friends and a dating app. Their sophomore year was during covid, where most classes were online, and other activities were mostly cancelled, so the couple quickly got to know one another. Just by chance, Savanna and Angel are both from Rochester and happened to have grown up only 20 minutes apart from one another. Savanna even thinks they played each other once or twice in youth soccer growing up. After a semester at Geneseo they spent the summer quickly integrating into each others families. Savanna participating in Bennett family pool days, and Angel getting to know Sophia and Kayden, Savannas niece and nephew. Their next few years in college followed with countless memories of parties, late nights at 10 Avon, (Angels college house) a vacation to Cancun, Angel's soccer games, Late nights working on Savanna's mud truck in her friend's garage, and even countless hours of studying with one another. During their senior year, Angel was working for a chiropractor, and savanna was developing her career as a mechanic, and a large decision was upon them... what would be their next steps after graduation? Angel graduated with a bachelor's in biology and savanna with a bachelor's in business administration. Angel decided that she would like to pursue chiropractic as a a career, and Savanna wanted to continue her work as a mechanic. After countless research and late nights planning their future, they decided the best next step for both their relationship and careers that moving to Greenville South Carolina for 4 years would be best. This was not an easy decision as we would both be leaving behind our families and everything we once new to develop a new life together. The summer before moving they adopted their beloved dog, Buddy. In the few years that followed they started their new lives together in the south, growing to love date nights out at Greenville, exploring new locations each time, monthly dates to sushi, and every once in a while, going out with friends. Savanna got a degree in diesel mechanics and then started working at Firestone full time. Angel is still perusing her degree at Sherman College of Chiropractic, and will be graduated a few months before the wedding. During their Christmas break in 2024 Angel planned a secrete surprise for Savanna. Inviting both of our families out for a "wine tour" where a surprise proposal awaited Savanna. Despite the white out conditions the van safely made it to Three Brothers Winery where the proposal took place, with a day of celebration to follow. In the summer following, Savanna gave Angel the ring she finally picked out, in one of Angels favorite places, Wanetta Lake. Over the past five years, Savanna has taught Angel about the joys of building and running her mud truck and four wheelers. She has taught Angel confidence to stand up for herself and what is right. She taught Angel to be a dog mom and lover and tries to convince her to get another dog almost weekly. Angel has taught Savanna the joys of traveling, to Cancun during their first year together, and trips to Florida, Disney, Las Vegas, and more. She has also shown Savanna the joys of snow skiing, where they frequent mountains in North Carolina during the winter. They both have evolved their joys of camping, christmas decorating (which happens on Halloween night in their household) snow sports, Buffalo Bills games, comfy movie days snuggling on the couch and more. Together they have taught each other the joys, and some struggles of what a lifelong partnership means and requires. They have grown their independence together, improved their cooking skills together, evolved their mindsets and thinking together, and so much more. They would not be the amazing people they are today without one another, and now everyone gets to celebrate their love for one another on October 2nd 2027, They cannot wait to celebrate with you on this day!

Medina Falls is a charming natural highlight just north of downtown Medina on Oak Orchard Creek. After the creek flows under the historic Erie Canal, it drops about 40 feet over limestone ledges to create a striking waterfall. You can easily view the falls right from the Erie Canalway Trail towpath, making it a peaceful stop for a short walk, great photos, or simply enjoying the sound of rushing water amid lush green surroundings. The falls are part of the area’s rich canal heritage — blending fascinating 19th-century engineering with serene nature scenes — and are free and open to the public year-round.&nbsp;
