Our Wedding

Theron and Kendall officially met at an Idalou High School football game. Kendall was a student at Talkington, an all-girls school in town, and was tagging along to watch over her sister Kate, with friends who were dating Idalou boys. That night sparked a brief interaction—but it wouldn’t be the last.The following summer, fate stepped in again. Both ended up lifeguarding at the Ransom Canyon pool, where their friendship began to grow…and so did the flirting. As it turns out, one of Theron’s best friends, Nick Zahn, also happened to be Kendall’s neighbor, which gave them yet another reason to cross paths.Over the years, summers came and went. Even after Theron moved on from lifeguarding, their connection stayed strong. Then, in the fall of 2019, Theron invited Kendall to one of his very first open mic nights at Sugar Browns Coffee. That led to more adventures: corn maze dates, riding Lime scooters around the Texas Tech campus, and late-night stops at Menchie’s—until Theron finally worked up the courage to kiss Kendall that December.The rest, as they say, is history.Since then, life together has been full of big and beautiful moments:* An unforgettable at-home prom during COVID* Theron (finally!) cut his hair* Welcoming Schmeppie, our pride and joy* Amazing family vacations and concerts with friends* Conquering long-distance with lots of love and FaceTimeWe can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter of our story with all of you!

Our Story

In August 2024, just a week before Kendall moved to Houston, Theron planned what she thought was a sweet going-away date night. She had a hunch there might be a surprise party—but had no idea a proposal was coming.After dinner, they drove out to Buffalo, supposedly for Kendall’s sister Kate’s birthday (shoutout to Kate for sharing her special day!). But instead of stopping at Kendall’s parents’ house, Theron kept driving. He led her on a hike—despite her wearing very impractical heels—and brought her to the edge of the lake where they had fallen in love years earlier.&nbsp;There, overlooking the water, he got down on one knee and pulled out a ring. With heartfelt words about how uncertain the future might be—but how certain he was about them—he asked Kendall to be his wife.She said yes, of course!
