Addison and Bailey met November 2021. Bailey thought he was so cute and they had been messaging on social media when she asked him to hang out one night with her and a couple of her friends: he said yes!! They spent hours together that night driving around and eating at a diner in fort smith! They definitely liked each other after that night!

The next day, Bailey and a few of her friends were going to go on a hike, she invited Addison to go! He showed up in a nice flannel and jeans, he says to "impress Bailey." She of course had to act like this was an everyday thing for her, (hiking) which seemed to work because Addison took her on what they now call the "death hike" a few days later! At this point, they were definitely both crushing and praying over the future with possibly each other!

A few days later Addison asked Bailey on a date in the tropical smoothie parking lot! He told her she did not have to say yes but that he was really hoping she would give it a chance! Bailey acted super calm and collected ( at least that's what she thinks ) and played it cool when saying yes! They went on their first official date to Texas Roadhouse and Goodwill where they picked super embarrassing outfits for the other to wear for the rest of the night!

Within the next week, Addison took Bailey to get coffee early one morning and asked her to be his girlfriend! She had been praying for this moment and was so ecstatic to make things official!

Over the next three years there were so many moments that both say helped them confirm that they were wanting to spend the rest of their lives together. Addison says that he knew he was going to marry her when two weeks into knowing each other, Bailey took him to an abandoned bridge in the middle of the night and started talking about the stars. She said that its so cool to think of God knowing each star by name because are we not so much more important than stars! This is the same moment Bailey says she knew Addison was very special, she had never felt comfortable enough to share that thought with someone before.

They did so many fun things together: they shared their first kiss after climbing a water tower together ( sorry parents we know its dangerous )!! They said I love you one random day in the winter while they were watching a movie together! Addison was getting weird and Bailey wouldn't let it go so Addison finally blurted it out and she said it back! They have travelled all over together: Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, and many cities in Arkansas! Most importantly, they grew to know that no matter what challenges life threw their way, there was nobody else they wanted to endure them with!

Addison and Bailey are so excited to be married and enjoy the rest of their lives together: which they say "will never be long enough."
