Our Wedding

Cassie and Dylan met in 2007, when she was in 7th grade and he was in 8th grade. They were fast friends and quickly became sweethearts. They didn't remain a couple but they stayed close friends, and Cassie accompanied Dylan to his junior prom in high school. Even though their young selves went their separate ways after school, God was not done with their story. How did you meet? Cassie: We met in middle school. I remember talking to Dylan while waiting to go into the gym in the mornings. I thought he was the cutest boy in school. We dated for a bit as middle schoolers and we remained friends through most of high school. I hoped for more but our timing wasn't right. Dylan: Cassie and I met in middle school. We started hanging out some and soon began to date. We dated off and on into high school. Some may call it puppy love, but that’s where it all started. Looking back, I didn’t know what I had, but I knew she was something special. She always had a special place in my heart. When did you know? Cassie: Our love was established through lots of time spent building trust and a friendship. There was no one moment where I knew this was it but rather a culmination of moments that proved we were building a solid and healthy foundation for love. I'm thankful, everyday, that our paths brought us back together. Dylan: Even though we went separate ways after high school, I’d find myself thinking about her. Early on into our careers we reconnected briefly, but we both had our hands full with work and life. As God’s Will would be, I was able to relocate back home to Blackshear from Florida. We reconnected again and the rest was history. I couldn’t get enough of her and didn’t think twice about traveling&nbsp;across the county in a heartbeat to see her.&nbsp; We caught up on life over the summer and I grew to love her more and more with every moment. I finally worked up the courage to tell her I loved her on her birthday, but knew it long before. It’s hard not to love someone like her. She has a heart of pure gold.&nbsp; Things were going really well, and we joked around often about not being in any hurry to get married. We took a vacation a year later to the Dominican Republic. If I'd had the ring, I probably would’ve given it to her right then. I knew she was the woman who I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, create a family with, and enjoy every life moment together.&nbsp; The proposal..... Cassie: It was the day after Hurricane Helene. My friend, Whitney, had convinced me to attend a wedding with her for a co-worker. When so many people came together to help me get ready without power I suspected more was at play. We got to the venue and I saw the cars of our family members. Music was playing and Dylan had our family lined up making a path and holding roses. He stood at the end&nbsp;at the dock. It was perfect!&nbsp; Dylan: A good plan takes some strategic planning. A great plan takes some good help. I was lucky enough to have some great people in my corner to plan the perfect proposal for my future Queen. Her mom, dad, sister, and best friend, Whitney, were the real MVP’s in making that happen. Mother Nature made it interesting as hurricane Helene rolled in 2 days prior to the proposal date. Nonetheless, we managed to make it happen and I’m pretty sure she liked it.&nbsp; A day in the life...... Cassie: I’m an elementary school teacher and he’s the logistics manager for Beach Timber. Our weekends are spent watching movies, hanging out with our families or our dogs. We like to spend quality time together by relaxing or getting dinner for date nights. Dylan: I am the Logistics Manager for Beach Timber Company. I oversee a fleet of delivery trucks, drivers, and maintenance personnel to ensure the smooth movement of our utility poles to our end customers, locally and across the world.&nbsp; I enjoy hunting, fishing, and spending time with my family. I have a 1.5 year old yellow lab who keeps me busy playing fetch. My favorite weekends are spent with the love of my life, my future wife.

It was always you...

Our Story

My best friend. My human diary. My other half. I'm so blessed to have her as my sister too. There's no one I'd rather have by my side on my special day.

Family is not always blood. It's the people in your life who want you in theirs; the ones who accept you for who you are, the ones who would do anything to see you smile, and who would love you no matter what.

She's been with me through thick and thin! There's not a significant event in my adult life, that she wasn't a part of. We have so many memories over the past decade and I can't imagine getting married without her by my side! 

Anna Strickland

From the ups and downs of the job to early morning sessions at the gym and one hour daily calls, I couldn't imagine life without her! We instantly clicked and she's the reason I survived my early years at PES!
