Our Wedding

What started with a simple swipe turned into something extraordinary. When Savannah came across Dylan’s profile something about him immediately stood out; A modern-day Prince Charming she didn't know she’d been searching for. From the moment they met, it felt like they had known each other forever. On their first date, Dylan had not one, but two bouquets of flowers because he couldn’t decide which one Savannah would love more. That night was pure magic and comfort, between making tacos and wandering through sparkling ZooLights together, laughing like they've been inseparable for years. From then on, they truly were inseparable. They spent their days hiking, exploring, and cherishing every little moment side-by-side. They became best friends. On their first hike, only two months into knowing each other, Savannah sprained both ankles at the top of the mountain. Without hesitation, Dylan carried her all the way down. It took 3 hours to get to the bottom of the mountain. It was in that moment, Savannah knew she had found her knight in shining armor. Over time, adventure turned into friendship, friendship turned into love, and love grew into the beautiful life they've been building together. They became best friends, partners, and now, soon to be Husband and Wife.

Savannah met Megan at the very beginning of their veterinary assistant program four years ago, and from day one Megan became one of the most important people in her life. What started as classmates quickly turned into a lifelong friendship. Today, they’re proud to work side by side as Certified Veterinary Technicians at the same animal hospital. Whether they’re fishing, antiquing, Cracker Barrel feasting, or getting competitive over game night, Megan is always someone Savannah can count on. Savannah is so grateful to have her standing by her side as Maid of Honor on such a special day.

Dylan met Stephen back in 4th grade. Over the years, their friendship has been built on shared interests—especially music. Dylan and Stephen have spent countless hours playing guitar together, even forming a band along the way. When they’re not making music, you’ll likely find them gaming, planning camping trips, or heading out to do a little fishing. Stephen has been a constant presence through every stage of life, making him the perfect choice for Best Man. He’s also the proud owner of a cat named Teddy, who keeps things interesting at home.

Ashton is Dylan’s younger brother and one of his closest friends. They share many of the same interests, from being big fans of Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and Breaking Bad, to having countless conversations about fitness and health. Beyond shared hobbies, their bond is rooted in always pushing each other to grow, improve, and become better versions of themselves. Ashton’s support and drive make him not only a great brother, but an easy choice to stand by Dylan’s side as a groomsman.

Dylan met Angel back in 6th grade thanks to a class assignment and a mutual friend being absent that day—a simple pairing that turned into a lasting friendship. Over the years, they’ve bonded over a shared interest in personal growth, always talking about ways to become happier, healthier, more efficient, and even smarter with their finances. Angel is also the goofball of the group, making sure things never get too serious and that everyone gets outside and has fun. His energy and positivity make him an important part of Dylan’s life and an easy choice as a groomsman.

Angel Mendez

Dylan met Edel during his freshman year of high school. Edel was already friends with Stephen and Angel and was quickly introduced into the group, where everyone instantly clicked. Before Dylan met Savannah, Edel was his first—and only—roommate, making him a huge part of that chapter of life. They’ve always enjoyed playing games together, and Edel was also the first person to witness Dylan and Savannah’s relationship grow and blossom in person. Although their friendship has mostly taken place from a distance, with Edel spending much of his time in the Phoenix area of Arizona, every time the group gets together creates some of Dylan’s most memorable and fun moments with friends. Edel’s presence always makes those reunions feel special. Edel also has a cat named Jackson, who used to be Dylan's other roommate.

At the same time, they manage to be both the toughest and most elegant little girls all at once. Their giggles instantly make Savannah’s day, and they’re happiest when dancing around or exploring the desert—whether it’s camping or hiking. Savannah is so excited to have these three special girls adding so much love and joy to the celebration.

She loves spending time outdoors, especially camping and enjoying nature with her family. Savannah and Dylan feel so lucky to have Scout as part of their special day.

Ronan is Savannah’s little brother, and one of the funniest people she knows. He’s always ready with a perfectly timed joke and has an old soul beyond his years, along with an impressive amount of knowledge about just about everything. Ronan loves the FDNY, baseball, hockey, racing, bikes, Legos, his dogs, and spending time at the beach. Savannah couldn’t imagine a more special ring bearer to be part of their big day.
