Our Wedding

Our story began at a Mexican rodeo—because where else do true love and a little dust in your boots collide? Between the smell of tacos, the sound of boots on gravel, and a few curious glances, something just clicked. We struck up a conversation, and before we knew it, we were planning our first official date: a fun and easygoing breakfast that turned into hours of talking, laughing, and realizing we didn’t want the morning to end.Over time, our connection only grew stronger. We faced life’s ups and downs side by side—supporting each other through the hard moments and celebrating the good ones like a team. Somewhere along the way, we realized we weren’t just dating—we had found our best friend, our partner, and our person.From traveling to Mexico, Georgia, Texas, and even the quiet corners of northern Wisconsin, we've made memories all over the map. But one of the biggest surprises came during what was supposed to be just a casual photoshoot with a horse (yes, really). In true fairy tale fashion—with the horse as our witness—the groom dropped to one knee and popped the question. Spoiler alert: she said yes!Now we’re trading in rodeo dust for wedding confetti, and we can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with all of you!
