Our Wedding

Our story began on a hot Saturday night in August in Austin, Texas. I was waiting at Gibson Street Bar alone for over an hour… Morgan said she lost track of time cleaning, which was BS — she was watching Suits in bed. Once the initial annoyance of her “parking was crazy” story wore off, sparks flew immediately. Several dates followed in the coming days, and in less than two weeks we were officially dating.From the very beginning, we loved going to all the fun bars Austin has to offer, paddle boarding, and spending nights drinking wine on my apartment roof. After about a month, Morgan basically moved into my apartment, and only a couple of months later we rescued our dog, Jelly. A few months after that, we got our place together, where we still live today.I love planning trips, and Morgan is always down — even when they involve attending football games. We’ve been from Oregon to Mississippi to Belize. We also love going to concerts; Morgan introduced me to “jam bands,” and while I’m not a full-on Deadhead, I’d say I’m Dead-curious. We’ve gone to several shows, from reggae to EDM — Morgan headbangs at both genres.We love living in our neighborhood in South Austin and are excited to see what the future has in store for us.

Our Story

Photos

Zach and I met in college (get used to that, I stopped making friends at 19) when he rushed my Frat, sick. Our bond got even closer when we lived together after college in San Francisco. Where we navigated the chaotic times that are your early to mid 20's. Zach is a human golden retriever, happy go lucky not a care in the world 6'5... man screw him. He currently lives in San Diego where he surfs daily and smuggles exotic animals across the border.  

Zach Hansen 

Nick and I lived together for a total of 7 years, both in college and as grown adults in a cottage in San Francisco. Nick is a true friend who has always had my back. Nick is a pretty simple man, he enjoys eggs and lifting weights. He suffers from a rare testosterone deficiency where even though he lifts weights daily, he is still quite small. Nick is happily married in wine country of California and is expecting his first child... beautiful.  

Nick Cantoni

Steve and I become friends in college, he was my adopted "big" in the Frat. Steve always knows where and how to have a good time, as you can see this picture was on a hot tub boat in San Diego. Steve and I have also bonded in misery as Sacramento Kangz fans, where we will always have Game 1 of the 2023 playoffs. Steve and I would hangout in San Francisco, but when he moved to San Diego during Covid I would visit him regularly. He currently lives in Brooklyn where he runs a Notorious B.I.G walking tour. 

Steven Jackson

Matthew is my older and only brother. Growing up Matthew and I would play video games and hero clix together. We have spent several thousand hours of silence together going to and from swim practice. Matthew has always been an incredible role model for me as he has quite literally never gotten in trouble in his life. Matthew also lives in Austin where he is a founder of a Artificial Intelligence company which sole purpose is to take your job.

Jack is my youngest cousin, basically the little brother I never had. One of the worst days of my life was when I realized he was taller then me... I've had a privileged life. Jack and I enjoy talking ball and betting. Jack lives in Minnesota, where he may or may not own a pig. 

Jack Lutz

Ken and I met in college when we were rushing the same Frat (sick). Ken and I first bonded on a road trip when I made a McGangBang at McDonalds, this is where I earned Ken's respect. Ken and I's relationship is basically our love for food and drink but not wanting to be fat, an eternal conflict. We have gone on several trips abroad to Mexico, Portugal, Canada, and beyond. Ken is happily married and lives in Kansas City where he stalks Taylor Swift. 

Kenny Lynch

Sam and I met in college where we lived together for two amazing years at the Thunderdome 1 and 2. Sam has an infectious laugh that brings people together. Always the life of the party Sam and I have had some great times. Sam currently lives in Seattle where he is a barista at a small underground coffee shop that only plays depressing rock music.

My oldest sister, being 8 years older Brittney is the ultimate "cool" big sister. From mix CD's in her 2000 Toyota echo to picking me up from a high school party 9 months pregnant, Brittney is as loyal as they come and the best big sister. I cried when she got married because she was no longer going to be a Tait girl, hopefully she doesn't return the favor 14 years later! 

Brittney Santos 

As the middle sister of us Tait girls, Lindsey was usually causing trouble and would blame it on her little sister.. aka me. Lindsey is known to step in whenever help is needed. She is helpful, hilarious, and someone I could not possibly do life without. Lindsey is someone you want in your corner and I am so grateful to have her by my side on this special day. 

Lindsey Tait 

Kelsey is my older cousin and someone I share so many amazing memories with. I cherish the special moments spent with her when I attended WVU. She always has my back and will pick up my call in the drop of a hat. I am so lucky to have her as a role model and a friend. Kelsey always brings the energy, even with 3 little ones! 

Kelsey Griffith 

Liz was my former roommate and we grew as friends very fast. We have been known to watch far too much real housewives on the couch all work day long. Liz and I have grown so much together over the years. She is now married and has a beautiful boy named Callum. I am so thankful that life brought me a friend like Liz and I can't wait to continue to watch her family grow. I am so happy to have her by my side for this momentous day! 

Elizabeth Kelliher 

Natalie was a former roommate, her Liz and I lived together before I met Eric. Natalie and I became fast friends, we are Scorpio's and have far too many memories to count. Natalie is someone I am so thankful to have in my life and we always manage to make the best of a night out or in! Natalie is a teacher and loves Taylor Swift, she will be disappointed to learn that will not be on the playlist. 

Natalie Suggs 

Lexi and I have no decent photos together because every time I am with her we are laughing so hard that I don't even know if our phones are in use.. From ski trips, to bollywood dancing and all the in between. Lexi is a breath of fresh air and an important friend in my life. Lexi got engaged to her amazing fiancé Cody during a dream trip of hers at Glacier National Park! 

Lexi Husson 

Emily aka Stocks came into my life my last year of nursing school. Through 4 a.m. clinical's, ski trips in the white mountains, and Tame Impala.. We have had some great times together. Stocks is someone I can't help but have a laugh with and look forward to cheering each other on through wherever life takes us. 

Emily Stockmal 

Evelyn is my niece and one of our family's biggest blessings as well as my nephew Gabe. Evelyn was born when I was 17 and soon became our families whole world. Evelyn is the best big sister. From watching her take her first steps to her now being a 5th grader, time has gone by in the blink of an eye. I am so proud to be her Auntie "M" and I am so excited for her to be a part of Uncle Eric and I's big day.
