Our Wedding

Bailey and Tanner’s love story kicked off at a house party he and his roommates threw in 2021. If you ask Bailey about that night, she will tell you he completely swept her off her feet with his quick wit and if you ask Tanner about that night, he will tell you he was truly captivated by her infectious laugh. Bailey spent the next few weeks “getting to know him” through their shared friend group. Fast forward to a Friday afternoon, unwinding at the bar with co-workers, and the universe (a.k.a their friends) gave them a little nudge. A round of shots for Bailey, and her friend Renée, got them over to Tanner’s table and that quick wit and infectious laugh came back into play, leading to the couple’s first kiss and the rest is history.From that moment on, Bailey and Tanner were inseparable, spending every weekend together and decompressing after long workdays with cozy date nights, home-cooked meals, and episodes of Flip or Flop. Their love continued to grow as they explored the streets of Auburn, tailgating and cheering on the Tigers (yes, we know), vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, visiting Bailey’s family in St. Augustine, Florida every summer, and creating their own holiday traditions like attending The Nutcracker every Christmas.One of their more recent adventures was relocating to Las Vegas for Tanner’s new job with The Exit Group in 2023. Over the last year and a half, they’ve explored a new city (no sight of Mr. Pappagiorgio yet), grown closer, and fallen even more in love. The highlight came when Tanner dropped to one knee on a sunset sail in St. Augustine last summer, asking Bailey to marry him. Her response? The easiest “Yes!” she’s ever given.They celebrated in their favorite way—relaxing on the beach, soaking up the joy of being newly engaged under the Florida sun. During their 2022 Florida trip, Bailey and Tanner toured the amazing Lightner Museum. Enamored with the history and beauty, once engaged they knew it was the exact place they wanted to say “I Do”. They toured again as a newly engaged couple and made it official settling on a date of September 26th, 2025.Now, as they dive into wedding planning and continue their Las Vegas adventures, they can’t wait to celebrate their marriage with all their closest family and friends!
