Our Wedding

Jillian Beaver and Colton Bender met in the most unconventional way—online, with a spark that neither expected but both instantly felt. What began as a simple conversation quickly grew into something lasting. On September 21, their lives intertwined for the first time, marking the day they officially began their journey together.Since then, they’ve been inseparable. With Brailynn, Koda, and Grey bringing endless energy and laughter, and two very cuddly dogs completing the picture, their blended family has only made life richer, louder, and infinitely more full. Together, Jillian and Colton found not just love, but a life built on connection, chaos, comfort, and a future they couldn’t imagine any other way.
