Our Wedding

Caroline and Cory first crossed paths years ago through their close friends, Maddi and Tony—Maddi and Caroline played soccer together at Middle Tennessee State University, and Tony served in the Marines with Cory. Although they had known of each other for some time, it wasn’t until a couple of years ago that their paths crossed again, giving them the chance to finally truly get to know one another.Not long after, they went on their first official date at their favorite local Mexican restaurant. It quickly became a weekly tradition—so much so that you’ll still find them there most Friday nights.What started as an easy connection quickly grew into something meaningful. It didn’t take long for both of them to realize they’d found something special.Two years later, during a beach trip with Caroline’s entire family, Cory proposed. Just as the family gathered for group photos, he got down on one knee. Caroline said “yes” without hesitation.Together, they live by a “work hard, play hard” mindset. Whether they’re pushing each other at the gym or exploring new restaurants from their ever-growing “must-try” list, they’re always finding new ways to grow together and enjoy the little things.Now, they’re so excited to celebrate the beginning of their forever with all the people who mean the most to them.
