Our Wedding

We are a modern-day Bumble success story! After minimal app chit-chat, we met for a morning coffee date at Kora Kora Coffee in Gruene on September 30th, 2018. I guess we enjoyed the company, because we've never stopped hanging out! We moved in together in October of 2020, and had a magical engagement on February 8th, 2024. Our household includes 3 fur babies - Stark the Husky, and Buffy &amp; Evie - our spoiled cats. We spend most of our time cuddling said fur-babies, drinking coffee, eating ice-cream on the couch while binge-watching shows, or occasionally grabbing some wine from Winery on the Gruene. We are so excited to finally tie the knot and celebrate with all of our loved ones!

Cassie and Kayla met their first year at Steele High School through the dance program. Their friendship officially sprang to life through Kayla's urge to attend the Breaking Dawn midnight book release, but her unwillingness to attend alone. They stayed up all night and haven't left one another's side since! Cassie is truly like family - they've supported one another in every aspect of their lives.

Mikey and Tommy first crossed paths in Boy Scouts, but it wasn’t until after high school that they became close friends. Over the years they’ve had countless adventures and shared unforgettable moments, even living together twice. Mikey is Tommy's go-to gaming buddy and someone who’s always been there through thick and thin. Over the years, he’s become like family—a true brother.

Ashtyn and Kayla became coworkers in 2017. As seemingly unlikely as it was, a true friendship blossomed through the many hours shared together, and they're now each other's biggest fans!  Ashtyn was the first to claim "Team Tommy," and got all the new-romance details between teaching classes.

DJ and Tommy first met on some uneventful day when they were in high school, and soon became part of a tight friend group. Over the years, they’ve shared in several of life’s chapters; from teenage shenanigans to living and working together. 20 years later Dj is still one of the boys, and Tommy couldn’t imagine a wedding party without him.

Kori and Kayla met in Mr. Albro's 3rd grade class. The rest of elementary school was spent growing close enough together that their friendship stayed intact when Kayla moved away in 8th grade. From childhood sleepovers to adult Halloween parties, they've remained constant in each other's lives through every stage! It is so special to Kayla that she has her first best friend by her side for this!

Kevin and Tommy met in 2015 through a mutual friend, and soon became roommates. They spent two solid years under the same roof, and Tommy came to appreciate Kevin’s loyalty and responsibility. Whether it’s helping out, cracking a joke, or just bringing good vibes, Kevin’s someone who’s always been a good friend—and Tommy is grateful to have him stand by his side on this special day.
