Our Wedding

Allison's friend, Laura, texted her a random picture of Tyler's shoes at a New Years Eve party in 2014. She said "I think I just met your husband". The rest is history.. JK! There's more to the story! Tyler was in Laura's small group at church and she asked Allison if she could give him her number because she thought they'd hit it off. Tyler texted Allison a few days later and they got to know each other through text since Allison still lived in Cleveland. They finally met in person in February 2015 and ran a 5K together in Memphis that April. They kept talking and decided that they wanted to keep getting to know each other. Their first official date together was May 2, 2015 where they met halfway for dinner in Tunica. Allie had decided earlier in the year, before meeting Tyler, she was moving to Collierville that August. After moving, Allison struggled with all of the big changes and adjustments of a new life away from Cleveland. A couple of weeks of trying to work through things, she realized she needed to be single and grow on her own and ended things with Tyler. It wasn't easy on either of them. Because they still both went to Harvest Church and had some of the same mutual friends, Tyler and Allie talked off and on throughout the next few years. Even though they had been on separate dates and in and out of relationships with other people, it seemed like their paths kept crossing. Fast forward to August of 2021, almost 7 years later! Allie reached out to Tyler and asked if he wanted to grab dinner and catch up. They were both surprised at how easy it was to talk. That same month, their new Sunday School class at church started up. This allowed them to spend more time together as their class planned many outings. In October after several group hang outs, they decided to give dating another shot. They had a lot of intentional conversations very early to make sure this was something they wanted to pursue again. 6 months was all they needed. :) Now, the rest is history!

Our Story

Photos

She's been there since the beginning and I wouldn't have it any other way. My big sister! She is honest, strong, and one-of-a-kind. We are as different as night and day but have always found special things that connect us. She is unique and confident in the person she is. Lisa is an even greater Taylor Swift fan than I am! We laugh together and share a love for a lot of tv series!

Lisa Hall

Laura and I met in the 7th grade and have been best friends ever since. My mom even calls Laura her 3rd daughter. When I moved to Collierville, TN in 2016, I even lived with Laura and her family for a year and a half! She gave me my 3 favorite people; McLane, Tinsley, and Grey. She makes me laugh, she's the shoulder I cry on, she knows me better than I know myself, and she's a rockstar mom. I couldn't imagine my life without her.

Laura Miller

Kimberly is my first cousin and has been around for it all! We have a pretty tight knit girl-cousin tribe. She helped  grow my love for riding horses and she's a rockstar cowgirl. Cajun and country through and through but has a sweet and sensitive soul.  One of my favorite family members if I'm allowed to have a favorite. I have loved watching her grow in her Faith and do an excellent job at being a wife and mom.

Kimberly Fontenot

My TriDelta sister, my college roommate for 6 years and one of the main reasons I made it out of there alive! Christy has always been such a joy to be around. She loves  people so well. She speaks Spanish like her life depends on it, has a heart for missions, and loves reading crime novels on the beach. Her faith in God and passion for the Word has always spurred me along in my own Faith.

Christy Clayton

Sarah Glenn and I met in College and formed a sweet friendship through a women's bible study. Our time together has always been filled with plenty of laughs and always honest conversation. In her friendships, she is gentle, caring, and selfless. Sarah Glenn is an old soul and I love it!

Sarah Glenn Bolen

Staci and I met in College and quickly hit it off. Her sweet and gentle personality was exactly what I needed to be around. She shares my heart for Africa and some of my fondest memories come from our two trips there together. She also loves Mexican Food and going to the movies just as much as I do!

Staci Eickmeier

Tyler's sister and my soon to be sister-in-law! She is sweet, kind, and gentle at heart. While our relationship is still new, I can already tell we are going to grow close as sisters quickly. I have loved watching her sweet little family grow. I am looking forward to all the things we will get to share together.

Sarah Little

My sweet Tinsley. This is my best friends daughter and I’ve gotten the honor of being there since day 1. She loves people well, is a daddy’s girl all the way, loves being outside, and enjoys crafts of all sorts. You never know what you’re going to get with Tinsley but I love that she is herself and nobody else!

Tinsley Miller

When I think of the one man that has always been there for me, who has always supported me and will always be there for me and my family, my father immediately comes to mind! He is exactly the kind of man, father and husband I continually strive to be and become!

Daryl Newman

Cooper is my brother-in-law and one of the greatest things to happen to our family! He is an amazing husband to my sister and father to my niece. He and I love to shoot guns, go fishing, and play soccer. I am so thankful I get to call him my brother!

Cooper Little

Alek and I became fast friends years ago. He and I love discussing current topics whether it's politics, crypto, relationships, but ultimately he has been a great weathervane pointing everything back to the Gospel.

Alek Pope

Erik is My Guy! He is a loyal, honest and a great guy to shoot the breeze with. He and I enjoy shooting guns, hanging by the pool and talking yard equipment. When it comes to men there is no one more down to earth than Erik.

Erik Melson

Peyton is my homeboy!! He is a leader and always points people to Christ in all things. He has always been a true friend. He is someone you can count on when in need. He'd give you the shirt off his back. He knows how to have a good time and be serious when needed. He is funny, caring and loves his friends deeply. He is someone I hope to share all of life's seasons with.

Peyton DeWitt

Matt is married to Laura Miller, Allie's best friend. It is believed that he was the first one to bring up Allie to Tyler, but that is highly contested, LOL. Matt is like a big brother to Allie and a dear friend of mine. He is incredibly kind and generous. He is someone that will tell it to you straight. I am so appreciative for his support, guidance, and encouragement in Allie's life!

Matt Miller

Anthony and I have know each other for years. He has always been one of the most honest hard working guys I know. He is and always will be one of my greatest friends! He has mentored me through so much and always spoken truth into my life. He is someone I can always count on to point me in the right direction. Anthony is an amazing father, husband, colleague and friend. I couldn't ask for a better friend!

Anthony Bass

Samson is one of the greatest blessings in my life. God gifted me with one of the most amazing little guys!! He is funny, caring, loyal and smart. He loves his friends and family. He and I have a slight Star Wars obsession. We love to play any sport together, particularly lacrosse. It is one of my greatest joys to see this sweet boy grow up.

Samson Newman

This is Matt and Laura's oldest son and the first one to term the name "Aunt Allie". McLane loves Star Wars, Legos, and Super Mario Bro's. He has always loved books and he's such a great reader.  McLane is full of useful (and sometimes random) information and it's so fun to see how his little brain works. He is sensitive, sweet, and strives to be a leader.

McLane Miller

My sweet baby Grey. This is Matt and Laura's youngest. Grey was born while I lived with the Miller's for a year and a half so we have a special bond. He is sweet, kind hearted, and loves quality time and affection. He's a killer hip-hop dancer, enjoys watching Football, and loves all things Dallas Cowboys. Grey has always been very observant and does an amazing job of tending to the needs of others, even at the ripe old age of 5.
