Our Wedding

Our Story

Who would have thought a little three pound dog would be the birth of the ever-evolving, indescribable concept called love? At least that's what Addisyn likes to say, but Ryan will argue something different. In order to talk to Addisyn, Ryan messaged her on Tinder (yes, it's true!) on September 10th, 2021, asking to see even more pictures of Aggie. He really did know the way to her heart! Of course, she sent them immediately and soon after they planned what they thought would be a casual date, but it ended up being something more. On September 17th, Ryan set up plastic pumpkin tea lights with faces on them and asked Addisyn to be his girlfriend. That was the start of their forever. For months, Addisyn and Ryan maintained a healthy relationship and spent time with each other when their activities allowed. They want on fun dates and made their own traditions to last a lifetime. When Ryan finally met Aggie, she slowly accepted him. Now, they're best friends and she will not leave him alone. That's how Addisyn knew that Ryan was a keeper. On June 7th, 2023, Ryan made the decision to get on one knee and propose to Addisyn. He made all these plans for another proposal, but as most know, she broke her ankle in three different places in May of that year. It caused almost all plans to change. He instead took her to Aggie Park and proposed to her on a bench so the ugly boot she had on wouldn't show in pictures. What a romantic! They ended the night with a celebratory dinner at Red Lobster in Conroe. This is only a small fraction of their story. They have so much more to show and tell about their adventures together! Join them for their wedding in which you will be immersed in their love story and be apart of it as well. Partake in their traditions and dance to their songs to welcome them into the married world! Oh, and Aggie will be there!

Hi! I'm Anna Martin, and Addisyn and I have been cousins (best of friends, too) for nearly 6 years now! I'm a Dance major at West Texas A&amp;M University! When I have free time, I enjoy dancing at my local dance studio, jamming out to Taylor Swift, or painting! One of my favorite memories with Addi is the the time when we went to get a hog skull and we ran into a very angry hog. We had to run to the four wheeler and speed off, where we laughed about it for a half hour after! I am so excited that I get to stand with sweet Addisyn and Ryan and celebrate them!! Love you guys!

Ryan (The Other One) - Groomsman

Hello! My name is Andrew Wilmot. I am from a small town in Indiana and went to Purdue University. I met Ryan at Field Training in Alabama and became good friends with him. After that we became closer, just relating to one another and that's where I learned more about Addisyn. Although, she was all that Tester talked about when we first met. I cannot wait to see these two amazing people start their lives together!

For those of you who may not know me, my name is Tanner, I have known Ryan for years, and I am privileged to have this opportunity to share with you all just a glimpse of the remarkable person he is and the beautiful journey that has led him to this very moment. I first met Ryan during my freshman year in high school on the track team. As a newcomer to the school, I didn't know too many people at the time. However, Ryan, being the selfless person that he is, befriended me without hesitation. Despite being a sophomore who could have hung out with anyone, he chose to run alongside me every day, introducing me to his incredible circle of friends. From that moment, our friendship began to blossom. Ryan's genuine kindness and determination are two qualities that have always stood out to me. He possesses an innate ability to make anyone feel valued and loved, and his unwavering support has been a constant anchor in my life. From helping me navigate the complexities of life to guiding me through challenging academic pursuits, Ryan has always been there, lending a hand whenever I needed it the most. He is not just a friend; he is family. But what I truly love about Ryan is his sense of humor. He has this incredible ability to make even the darkest of days seem brighter with his infectious laughter and witty jokes. I cannot count the number of times he has brought a smile to my face and lifted my spirits with his lighthearted nature. His honor is a testament to his resilience and his humor is a testament to his optimism - qualities that I know will do him well throughout his married life with Addisyn. Speaking of memorable moments, there is one particular memory that will forever hold a special place in my heart. It was the night that we pulled an all-nighter, entrusted with the task of watching someone's dogs. As the hours ticked by, we found ourselves immersed in deep conversations about life, dreams, and the uncertainties that lay ahead of us. We were both in the midst of navigating our own paths, feeling confused and scared. However, in each other, we found solace and a source of strength. Ryan was there for me when no one else was, and in that moment, I realized that I wanted to be a part of his life, supporting and cheering him on every step of the way.

Hi guys, my name is Brayden Tester. I am 17, live in Colorado, and play soccer. If you didn't already know by the name, I am Ryan's brother. Ryan has been one of the closest people in my life since birth and that will never change. Through thick and thin, he will always be the man in my corner, and I am excited to see the next steps in his life with Addisyn!

Brayden - Groomsman

My name is Michael Price, and I am a senior at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I study Russian and will be commissioning into the Air Force from ROTC in May 2024. I'm a big foodie and love trying different foods. I enjoy traveling (especially internationally) and experiencing different cultures. I first met Ryan at the end of my junior year of high school. I had just moved back to the US from Europe, and he was one of the first friends I made in Colorado. Through my senior year and COVID, he became one of my best friends and someone I can rely on. Even though we went our separate ways geographically, he's still one of my closest friends (even though his memes are mid). I'm not sure if I'll be able to attend due to entering active duty, but at a minimum I'll be there in spirit. To the Tester(s), congratulations!
