They expressed their gratitude to the artist who created the cards, highlighting their connection to the city where they fell in love and built their lives together.
Their post, which featured sweet images of the couple celebrating with glasses of fizz, was captioned with the sentiment, “When thinking about our save the dates, we wanted something original that celebrates our home in Manchester. If you look closely, you’ll see that Dave’s murals are all over the city, and we couldn’t be happier with what he has created for us. Thank you for making something so special.”

He explained the challenge of proposing while surrounded by wildlife, saying he needed a safe location to exit the Jeep and get down on one knee.
Jack recounted, “I had to find a spot that was like, ‘Okay, we’re in the clear now, you can jump out.’ So we jumped out and were under this tree, having our picnic lunch.” The couple has been together since 2017, having met through their work on Coronation Street, where Hanny was a researcher and storyliner.
