Our Wedding

Love has a funny way of bringing people together, especially when they least expect it. When Maddie and Bryan first met at a bar in Dallas, Maddie was having a lot of fun - so much so that she doesn't remember meeting Bryan at all! But as fate would have it, they were destined to cross paths again a week later, and this time, Maddie couldn't deny the spark that was there between them.Since that serendipitous moment, Maddie and Bryan have built a beautiful love story based on shared passions and a love for adventure. They've traveled to incredible places, experienced unforgettable moments, and discovered a deep connection through their mutual love for country music. Whether they're singing along to their favorite songs in the car or attending concerts together, music has always been a constant source of joy in their relationship.The most notable concert being a private Mitchell Tenpenny sound check where Bryan proposed to Maddie after they danced to the song "At the End of a Bar".It just goes to show that sometimes, the best things in life happen when we least expect them, even at the end of a bar.

The Phoenix metropolitan area is home to numerous stadiums where teams conduct their preseason workouts and games. During spring training, teams from both the American League and National League participate. A total of 15 MLB teams, split between the two leagues, call the Cactus League their temporary home. The Phoenix area boasts a variety of stadiums specifically designed for spring training games. Some notable venues include Salt River Fields at Talking Stick (shared by the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies), Camelback Ranch (shared by the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers), and Sloan Park (home of the Chicago Cubs). The atmosphere at spring training games is often more relaxed and fan-friendly compared to regular-season MLB games. The smaller stadiums allow for closer interaction with players, autograph opportunities, and a chance to see emerging prospects alongside seasoned veterans. Attending a spring training game offers fans a chance to enjoy baseball in a more laid-back atmosphere. Tickets are usually more accessible and affordable compared to regular-season games, and parking is often easier.
