Tamlyn and Bailey met in collage. They lived in the same dorm for a WHOLE year, and only talked to each other ONCE. Then God decided to throw them together as roommates and their lives were never the same. Since then Tamlyn and Bailey have been joined at the hip, laughing together, celebrating each other, and sharing some of the most memorable moments together. Bailey is the most loyal, caring, and driven person you'll ever meet. She is so full of love for others, especially her friends and family. She is the type of person who would move mountains for you if she could. She is both the life of the party and your personal therapist. Tamlyn couldn't imagine anyone else (other than Connor of course) to be by her side on this special day :)

Bailey Anderson

Layton and Connor met in first grade when they were in the same cub scout troop. They introduced their parents together and then became brothers! To this day Layton still hasn't beaten his big brother in one on one basketball, despite Layton having a mean midrange jump shot. Layton has always been Connor's go to man. 

Layton Coker

Tamlyn and Michaela met whilst studying abroad in England. Michaela has been one of the most constant friendships in Tamlyn's life. She is caring, gentle, and probably the sweetest person you'll ever meet. Even though they live MILES apart, Michaela always finds time to have a multi hour FaceTime date with Tamlyn. Michaela and Tamlyn have walked with each other through every season, and Tamlyn is SO excited to have Michaela by her side during the most exciting season of all!!

Michaela Stauceanu

Isabella (AKA Bella) is one of Tamlyn's cousins. Tamlyn and her cousins spent most of their childhoods sleeping at each other's houses, going on trips together, going to school together, and growing up like sisters. Bella has not only been like a sister to Tamlyn, but one of her best friends. Bella is the epitome of an adventure. She is always down to try new things, go to new places, and meet new people. She is always ready for the next adventure life gives. Bella is one of Tamlyn's biggest role models and helps her to always seek all that life has in store! Tamlyn and Bella have stood side by side through every graduation, every ballet recital, and even through some of Bella's crazy adventures! So of course Tamlyn wanted Bella to stand with her during the biggest adventure of all... saying "I do" to the love of her life!

Isabella MacMiller

Zach and Connor met in fifth grade and have been buddies since. They played basketball together from seventh through senior year of high school. Zach was quite the sharpshooter. They were roommates for two years together in college. If there's one thing you can count on its Zach always bringing the boom. 

Zach Bartek

Julia is another one of Tamlyn's cousins, and the happy couple's matchmaker ;) Julia has also been like a sister to Tamlyn. They have shared many of life's adventures together, and Julia has always been Tamlyn's voice of reason. Julia is gentle, sweet, and a silent power house. Julia has always been one of Tamlyn's biggest encouragers, and someone who pushes her to be her best.

Sam and Connor met very early on in their scouting journey over ten years ago. They went on all of their scouting adventures together and bonded through their shared love of sports, humor, and giving Layton a hard time. Sam sat through many, many of Connor's awful basketball games and Connor always loved watching Sam pitch the lights out. 

Sam Barron

Ava is also one of Tamlyn's cousins, and sisters at heart! Ava is pure joy. She is always laughing, always making others smile, and always encouraging others. She is never afraid to be her self and helps those around her to feel more comfortable to do so too. Ava is truly the life of the party and will be keeping the dance floor alive all night :)

Ava MacMiller

Kaitlyn has been one of Tamlyn's life long friends, but after many years of living in different cities they finally reconnected a few years ago and have shared so many more exciting and special memories together since. Kaitlyn is always down for an adventure (especially when it involves dressing as princesses and running away to a castle)! She is always encouraging and welcoming to others! Kaitlyn has truly been like a best friend, a sister, and Tamlyn's voice of reason (or the one to convince her there is no reasoning) hehe! So of course Tamlyn wanted her by her side :)

Kaitlyn Dill

Colwin is Tamyn's little brother! He is the definition of a gentle giant. He is sweet, kind, and funny. Colwin has always been Tamlyn's biggest supporter and from the beginning has been excited for her and Connor!

One of Connor and I's FAVORITE things to do together is go to the movies! We have seen almost EVERY movie there is to see in theaters. So if you're looking for something to do in the city, check out this rooftop cinema in Downtown Fort Worth!

The Dallas Arboretum is one of Connor and I's favorite places to visit and take a nature walk! There are HUNDREDS of different flowers and sculptures to see, and they are constantly adding new exhibits! They also provide TONS of picnic spots and even hold free concerts!

The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden

Connor and I had one of our first dates at White Rock Lake, and we still go ALL THE TIME to take a stroll and reminisce on how we met and fell in love :) So if you're looking to stretch your legs and see a few historic parts of Dallas, this is the activity for you!

White Rock Lake Park

If you didn't already know this about us, Connor and I are BIG foodies! But one of our FAVORITE places is Gallo Nero in Lower Greenville. They have the BEST Italian food! If Italian is not your cup of tea, lucky for you Dallas is FILLED with lots of different types of restaurants to please any fellow foodie!
