Our Wedding

We met on the first day of class at Tyler Junior College in August of 2021. We were both in the Honors College, both in the same dorm hall, and quick to become friends! As life would have it, we both ended up at Stephen F. Austin State University after graduating from TJC in 2023. We began dating again on July 4, 2023, and got engaged on July 4, 2024! We are so excited to share our special day with all of you!

Q + A

Where in the world is Tyler Texas? Well, it's a medium size (110,000 people), Northeast Texas town, nestled amongst the piney woods of Smith County. By car, Tyler is about an hour and a half southeast of Dallas taking I-20. Although Tyler does have an airport (TYR), the only carrier servicing the airport is American Eagle RJ service and fares are typically more expensive than flying into either Dallas Love Field (DAL) or DFW International Airport (DFW). Tyler was named after the tenth US President John Tyler. Tyler is also called the "Rose Capitol of the world" due to its history of rose production, cultivation and processing. Tyler is proud to be the home of the largest rose garden in the country, situated on fourteen acres, with approximately 38,000 rose bushes of more than 500 varieties. If you are interested in learning more about the Rose Garden, check out the "Things to Do" tab.

Tyler state park is a relaxing scene that is away from the city atmosphere. It is full of mountain biking trails, fishing spots, and has multiple great hiking trails for beautiful walks through the piney woods.
