I love to tell our story because of how beautiful and unique it is!
Tanner and I both grew up in Athens. We first met each other during our freshman year of high school. I was the first to develop a crush on Tanner and noticed we had a couple of classes together our first semester of freshman year. One day we just randomly started talking when I told him he was cute! The more we talked in that first year, the more we started to like each other. Our first “date” was the first high school football game of the season and we talked the entire game. After that we spent the majority of our weekends together
By sophomore year, Tanner and I had taken some time apart, but in the end, God had a plan to bring us back together. Time went on and we became closer each day. Tanner asked me to be his girlfriend once again, and of course, I accepted. I remember how excited I was that the feelings were mutual
There have been so many amazing memories, laughs, tears, and dates over the years. I would not trade anything for it though. Tanner is the most loving, kind and caring man that anyone could ask for. He is very patient and understanding with me, even when I am overwhelmed and feeling crazy about everything going on around me. I can definitely say I am loved every day and spoiled tremendously.
The reason we have been so successful is because we have tried our best to keep God first. Our prayers have always been answered, even if it was not what we thought, but they continue to be. We both truly believe that this marriage will be blessed and that God will use us in a great and mighty way, I am anxious to see it all unfold. We are so excited to get married and share the day with our loved ones!
