Our story almost didn't begin, all because Bailey was terrified of dating a coworker...

Bailey and Tim, like many couples these days, met on a dating app. Tim was a trooper and patiently persisted on the app waiting to meet his person. Bailey, however, had downloaded and deleted the app several times before finally deciding to commit to the search for a reasonable amount of time. She would log on only a handful of times a day to keep the stress levels low. On July 2, 2023, she came across a super cute Christian guy who had the same answer to the prompt of what a typical Sunday looks like (church, coffee, lunch, reading/painting for Bailey, and games for Tim). The only problem was that Tim (the aforementioned cutie) listed on his profile that he was an engineer at Universal Studios. Bailey was hesitant to send a like because she didn't want to make things awkward at work if they ended up dating. So she decided to leave the app to think on it. She would later find out that this could have been a HUGE mistake as dating apps tend not to keep the profile up of the last person viewed, but instead shuffle to new people. God was looking out for the pair though, and when Bailey logged back on a few hours later, Tim's profile was still up. She decided to take a risk and send a like thinking that maybe it wouldn't turn out to be anything anyway. Little did she know, that Tim jumped on the chance to match with Bailey and eagerly started their conversation within fifteen minutes of matching! Their easy conversation consisted of text novels relating to books, painting, church, cooking, and beer making.

It wasn't long before Tim asked Bailey on a date seeing as they had so much in common. Bailey said yes before the pair discovered that not only did they both work at Universal, but both at Creative! Things were going so smoothly though, that Bailey's nerves were low. They set up their first date for a few days later at Foxtail Coffee and Kelly's Ice Cream on Sand Lake. The date was perfect! Three hours of conversation, coffee, and ice cream flew by. Tim went home and proceeded to tell his roommate that it was the best first date he had thus far! Bailey drove home with a smile on her face as she thought about how this might unfold in the future. As they continued talking and going on dates, the pair knew they had discovered something special. They started to share their hobbies with each other as the months went on. Tim learned to love painting, like reading, and cultivate plants. Bailey learned to love skiing, enjoy making and drinking espresso, and fermenting beer and cider! And they both shared their love of cooking with each other over many homemade meals.

The months flew by as they laughed a lot, learned more about each other, and started to realize this was the person they wanted to spend the rest of their lives with. Eventually, Tim secured a beautiful ring and popped the question in a courtyard on Park Ave where they had their second date. Since then, it has been a whirlwind of celebration, joy, and planning for their wedding day! They cannot wait to celebrate with you all on December 7th!
