Our Wedding

Our Story:

We met during the first week of Tailor's freshman year - one of those random, right-place-right-time moments that changed everything. We hit it off instantly and became best friends almost overnight.

Over time, that friendship turned into something more. We've shared a lot of adventures since then - from spontaneous weekend trips to long flights across the world - always finding new ways to laugh, explore, and make memories together.

Somewhere along the way, our little family grew by four paws. Olivia Benson (yes, named after that Olivia Benson) quickly became the center of our world!

Now, after years of growing together, we're so excited to celebrate this next chapter with all of you! - Tailor &amp; Devon

Late September at Deep Creek Lake is all about crisp air, colorful leaves, and peaceful mountain views. The summer crowds have thinned out, but the lake still has that relaxed, welcoming energy.

The trees around the lake start to turn shades of gold, orange, and red, creating a beautiful backdrop against the deep blue water and rolling hills. Whether you're into outdoor adventures or just want to slow down and take in the view, it's one of those places that feels calm, cozy, and a little magical this time of year.

Things to do:

Blackwater Falls State Park

Just a short drive from Thomas and Davis, Blackwater Falls State Park is one of West Virginia's most stunning natural spots. The park is named for its 57-foot waterfall, where the amber-colored waters of the Blackwater River cascade into a deep canyon. The color comes from natural tannins in the surrounding red spruce and hemlock trees - it's a view that's beautiful year-round, but especially breathtaking in the fall. Late September is an incredible time to visit - the air is crisp, the leaves are starting to turn, and the trails are peaceful before peak foliage season. You can take in the waterfall from the main boardwalk overlook, hike one of the many scenic trails, or just enjoy a quiet moment surrounded by the sound of rushing water and mountain air. Whether you're into hiking, photography, or simply soaking up nature, Blackwater Falls is one of those places that captures everything people love about West Virginia - wild, calm, and absolutely beautiful.

Seneca Rocks

About an hour from Thomas and Davis, Seneca Rocks is one of West Virginia's most iconic natural landmarks - a dramatic formation of towering quartzite cliffs rising nearly 900 feet above the North Fork River. It's a favorite spot for hiking, rock climbing, and taking in panoramic mountain views. The hike to the top is about 1.5 miles each way, with a well-maintained trail that winds through the forest to a viewing platform overlooking the valley - totally worth it for the view (and the photos!). Even if you'd rather stay grounded, the visitor center and nearby picnic areas offer beautiful scenery and a close-up look at the cliffs. In late September, the air is cool, the crowds are light, and the first fall colors begin to show along the ridges - making Seneca Rocks an unforgettable stop for anyone exploring the area.
