Hannah Ann Sluss, Former Bachelor Contestant, Shares Key Wedding Plans with Jake Funk

Bachelor alum Hannah Ann Sluss is already planning her wedding to football pro Jake Funk. Though Funk is about to start spring training with the Detroit Lions, they won't have much time off, according to Sluss. "It's a brief window for wedding planning and spending time with friends and family. Next week, he leaves and everything for the wedding must be finished."

As they approach their summer wedding, they have planned most of the details, including incorporating food from both of their backgrounds, shared the 27-year-old. Jake, a proud Marylander, declared early on in his two-year relationship with Hannah that he can't have crab cakes unless they're from Maryland. In jest, Hannah suggested they try a variation of that sentiment. Regarding Knoxville, Tenn., Hannah Ann's Southern upbringing will bring a lot to the table, including fried biscuits and whiskey. She recently partnered with Bays English Muffins through her cooking videos.

"For our wedding, we want to incorporate our backgrounds into the reception party so guests can enjoy the food and drinks from both of our upbringings." Hannah Ann mentioned that wedding dress shopping is great, but the personalized touches in planning have made it really fun for her. Hannah Ann, Tayshia Adams, and Amanda Stanton became close when they attended Andi Dorfman's wedding in Italy. Hannah Ann said, "Even if you're not from the same season, you have this unique bond." "We had a blast together. And since the reality TV alum aimed to make friends on Peter Weber's season, she invited most of the girls she still talks to." Victoria Fuller will likely RSVP yes as she attended the Nashville bridal shower.

"It's great seeing us progress, find our person, and celebrate together. And honestly, we can't even remember how we met, which is hilarious." Hannah Ann's engagement to the pilot didn't work out, returning the diamond before their finale aired. But her relationships with the rest of Bachelor Nation, including former Bachelor Arie Luyendyk Jr., have been great. and his bride Lauren, currently training with Hannah Ann for a 10-mile race. "I'm really close with Lauren," she said of the mom of three. We all connect because bride-to-be Hannah Ann isn't the only one enjoying a lucky situation.
