Our Wedding

When I got back into the dating world, I downloaded an app called Hinge (for those of you who don't know what that is, it's an app where you can include pictures and prompts to get to know someone a smidge before matching). Jalen popped up and had answered my prompt reading, "I bet you can't make me laugh." Little did I know she would be able to make me laugh, and we have been laughing and giggling together ever since. However, at the time, I worked night shift and didn't always respond during normal people hours. So, right after she made me laugh, she basically bullied me into continuing to talk to her (see the screenshot above). Thankfully, it worked out in both of our favor (helloooooo, we're getting married!). We came into the relationship with me having one dog, Ollie, and Jalen having three dogs (Raven, Ziggy, &amp; Zombie) and three cats (Symone, Sweeney, &amp; Clementine). Since we started dating, we've added another cat, Luna, 17 ducks, and fostered two puppies at the same time. Yes, we do have a farm in the midst of the city. Don't worry, we plan on moving somewhere with more land and extending our farm and adopting more animals! I wouldn't trade this life for the world. I'm so glad to have met someone who loves animals as much as me, someone who will go on adventures (even if she may complain and cuss the whole way through), and someone who shares my dreams in life. Jalen is my other half, the person I didn't know I deserved, and so, so much more. We can't wait to see you on our wedding day. Much love, Anna Grace

Anna, Franna, My Soldier. This girl is absolutely incredible! To know her is to love her. I bet she rocks a stache better than you.

Emily Humphrey

Jaime is Jalen's oldest sister and is truly beautiful in and out. Jalen looks up to her in more ways than Jaime knows. Jaime also gave Jalen her great brother-in-law (Haydon), her nephew (Joe), and niece (Attaly), and Jalen is so grateful to have them all in her life!

Jaime Arnold

Hannah is AG's sis-in-law. Literally the best sister in law anyone could ask for! We absolutely love jamming out and making fun of AG's brother together!

Hannah Mills

Jenna is Jalen's older sister (and the middle sister of the 3). She was the troublemaker growing up and although Jalen tattled on her when they were younger, they get into trouble together now! Jenna has always been there for her younger sister, and Jalen is so grateful for Jenna putting up with her through all the years!

Jenna Burns

This girl is AG's OG work wife. She is AG's go to for all the things and will forever be giggling together over random things.

Madison Hester

Sarah is Jalen's sister-in-law but has been like a sister to her for several years prior to her marriage to Jenna! Jalen likes to say that Sarah is a "sweet baby angel" and she truly is an amazing person! 

Sarah Bradberry

Megan has been one of Jalen's best friends since 2016 after they bonded about dating the same shitty guy! Megan has always been there to support, laugh, and love Jalen and now, has become that same ray of light for Anna. With her warmth, wisdom, and deep love for us, we couldn't imagine anyone better to guide us into this next chapter of our lives.
