Our Wedding

Brittany moved to Florida in June 2019 without knowing a single person. One night, she went to Hooters for dinner to meet a new friend, but she never showed up. While sitting alone at the bar, she noticed a guy at the other end…Ted. They didn’t talk that night (Ted admits he was too nervous to say anything), but Brittany definitely noticed him as well, and she may have sped out of the parking lot afterward, trying to look cool in her Mustang.Over the next month, Brittany kept spotting a white Mustang around town. She saw it everywhere at stoplights, in parking lots, and even passing by in the opposite direction, waving to each other once. Then one day, fate stepped in again: Brittany pulled up to a red light, and Ted was right beside her. He rolled his window down and said, “I love your car,” and Brittany replied, “I love your car!” He asked for her Instagram and later messaged her, saying he’d been trying to find her since that night at Hooters.A few days later, they finally hung out for the first time Ted brought his friends along for a late-night Denny’s run. Brittany broke the ice by teasing his buddies a little, which made everyone laugh and set the tone for the rest of the night. From that moment on, they’ve been inseparable. Two Mustangs, one small town, and a little bit of fate brought them together.

How we met: 

Brittany met Ted when she was 21 and he was 26, and over the years, their relationship has grown stronger in so many ways. What made it even more special was realizing that their lives had been connected long before they officially met. Ted grew up in Cape Coral, Florida, and Brittany had vacationed there since she was around eight years old at her family’s vacation home was just ten minutes from where Ted grew up. Neither of them knew it at the time, but they had practically been neighbors for years.Ted’s first house on his own ended up being five minutes from where Brittany was now living so moving in together made sense and it really allowed them to spend more time together, get to know each-other faster, and Brittany quickly became close with Ted’s family shortly after. From the very beginning, they welcomed her with open arms, treating her like one of their own. For Brittany, who had moved across the country without knowing anyone, and without any family or friends nearby it truly felt like home. Ted has always been Brittany’s biggest supporter cheering her on for starting up her face painting and art business from ground zero again, being there during many difficult times, and making her feel special in everyday moments. At the same time, Brittany has supported Ted in everything he does: attending his&nbsp;&nbsp;races at Sebring and Daytona, helping with car projects like helping install the flame throwing kit on his Mustang, and being there for the fun and the challenges. Together, they share a love for cars, adventures, and the special moments in between.Ted and Brittany have also built a life full of care, fun, and shared responsibility from spoiling their cat Sargent, who was Ted’s before they met, to navigating life together as a team. Ted now gets jealous when Sargent gives Brittany more attention than he gets since it’s now her fur baby now too. Brittany’s love and support for Ted, and Ted’s love and support for Brittany, have strengthened their bond over the years and made them a true partnership in every sense. They’ve learned that together, they can take on anything because it’s now Ted and Brittany against the world. Ted officially asked Brittany to be his girlfriend on September 4th, 2019.

Growing Together 

Ted and Brittany got engaged in Juneau Alaska… and for it being so far away from their home town in Florida here’s how it was made possible. In December 2024, Brittany and Ted decided to skip Christmas gifts, and then birthday gifts the next year, and plan an unforgettable trip instead. Ted’s family had always talked about how amazing their Alaskan cruise was, so Brittany booked one for August 2025. They flew first class after Ted insisted on it, and began what would become the most memorable trip of their lives. August 11th, 2025 their very first day in Alaska. They spent the morning whale watching, then enjoying Alaskan king crab, and exploring little shops. They then had some time to spare before their boat left, so they decided to take a ski lift up a mountain to go for a hike. Even though it was raining and muddy as they hiked through the rainforest, by the time they reached the top, they were sweaty and exhausted, but the breathtaking view made it all worth it. While Brittany was distracted taking photos, Ted asked to set up the camera to film a TikTok video… and then he got down on one knee and proposed. Over the years, Brittany had always told Ted how much it meant to her to have photos, and maybe even a video of that moment so she can always look back at it. And, in true Ted fashion, he made sure it happened.Whether it was partially planned or completely spontaneous, Ted went above and beyond to make the moment special, thoughtful, and everything she could have ever hoped for. They spent the rest of the week exploring , Skagway, and Ketchikan, and seeing the beautiful views in Glacier Bay… but Juneau, Alaska will always hold the most special place in their hearts.

From quick FaceTimes and long catch-up calls to sharing chips and salsa and enjoying margarita-girl days, their friendship has stayed steady and full of joy.
Malorie may be quiet, but she is truly the sweetest soul you will ever meet. Brittany even had the honor of photographing Malorie’s proposal, a moment that symbolizes just how entwined their lives have become. Their friendship has been filled with laughter, support, and countless little memories that mean everything.
Brittany has always known she wanted Malorie standing by her side on her wedding day, and she couldn’t imagine saying “I do” without her.
