Our Wedding

We ended up working at the Tupelo Country Club together in October 2022. Payton very smoothly told everyone except for Shelby he was interested in her. Shelby found out and passed messages down the grapevine that she was also interested in him. After several weeks of being too shy to talk to each other, Payton got her number from a friend and invited her to lunch. They went to lunch together that Monday in November, and then a same day dinner date quickly followed. They then went on another date Wednesday which was actually Payton's birthday. Shelby was informed he had no other plans (not that he had actually canceled his birthday plans when he realized she was free). After that, Payton and Shelby were pretty much inseparable. They became "official" a month after their first date. Both always having thought "when you know you know" was a cliche, realized that truly was the perfect way to describe it. "We just knew". Shelby even has a journal from November 2022 stating that they would be married one day. In May 2024, Payton set up a beautiful proposal, by having one of Shelby's best friends offer a photography session as a gift. As they were posing for one of the pictures, Shelby turned around to find Payton and one knee, and some of her greatest loves coming out of a clever hiding spot. We cannot wait to celebrate our love with so many of our favorite people! See y'all at the wedding!
