Our Wedding

Anthony and I met in during our time at Colorado State University, where we were both members of the same campus ministry group. It wasn't until our senior year that we got together. We went to see Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker together and went mini-golfing (which was definitely a date, Anthony), and we've been inseparable ever since. We've been on countless adventures together in two countries and five states, making memories that will last a lifetime. We share a love of reading, and can often be found reading and discussing books together. We also enjoy doing art together, whether painting or drawing, and we have even created a few pieces for our future home. Staying active and healthy is also important to us, and we love going to the gym and getting outdoors together. We always motivate each other to be the best we can be. After nearly four years together, we are excited to take this next step and start a new chapter in our lives!

The Beginning

On a trip to Las Vegas, NV on February 3, 2023, Anthony popped the question at the top of the Eiffel Tower Experience at the Paris hotel. We got to the top right at sunset, and when our maid of honor Kindra and groomsman Brandon offered to take a photo of us, I turned around and Anthony was on one knee. It was a magical moment that we will never forget. As the icing on the cake, the Bellagio fountains started going off right as I said yes, and we got to spend the rest of the weekend celebrating and spending quality time together!

The Proposal

Our Story

Photos

As my cousin and biggest fan, Kindra and I have been close since childhood, but that really grew when she moved to Yoder and we played volleyball together. I've always found comfort, support, and a best friend in Kindra, and she's the best confidante and cheerleader I could ask for! As years passed, I found Anthony and Kindra found Brandon, and the four of us have started a monthly game night, which has become a tradition we all look forward to. Our bond grew even stronger through these times of laughter and good times. When it came time for the proposal, it was only right that Kindra and Brandon were there to witness and capture the magical moment. Now it's my honor to have Kindra and Brandon stand by us as I marry the love of my life. Kindra's friendship has been a constant source of joy, comfort, and love, and I am so excited to celebrate this next chapter together!

Kindra Young

Macy and I met in third grade, and we've been best friends through thick and thin. We went through all of the milestones of childhood together, from sleepovers to school dances and sporting events. We both ended up in Northern Colorado for college and we remained close, but our time as roommates during the Disney College Program really solidified our bond for life! Working at the Happiest Place on Earth, we shared magical moments, unforgettable experiences, and made lifelong memories. Our friendship has stood the test of time, distance, and life changes, and I can't wait to have her by my side on my wedding day, just like we've planned since third grade!

Josie and I were destined to be friends from day one, thanks to our mothers who are also best friends! As we have grown up, our bond has only become stronger, and I've grown to trust in Josie as much as anyone. She has been a constant source of support for me, and she's always there to offer fashion advice, honest opinions, and most importantly, lend a listening ear on everything from wedding décor to deeper things. Josie's friendship is a true blessing, and I'm so grateful to have her as an integral part of our special day!

Josie Yoder

I have been so blessed to find a dear friend in Emilie, who started as my roommate in 2021. We were randomly placed together, but she quickly became a close friend of both Anthony and I. Our friendship grew over countless conversations, our love for movies and games, and most importantly, Emilie's adorable dog Honey (who is an honorary flower girl ;) who always adds an extra dose of love and hilarious antics when she's around! I am so thankful for her friendship, and we cannot wait to have Emilie join us as Anthony and I celebrate this special occasion.
