Reception

Our Wedding

We first met in February 2021 while working as Transport Officers at the Winona County Jail. Spending countless hours on trips across the state of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and even as far as Indiana, we got to know each other, and our love grew from there.After a year of working together, Tara decided to explore new opportunities, eventually moving to the Twin Cities in 2022. We navigated a year of long distance before finally settling into the home Tara purchased in Brooklyn Park in February 2023. Since then, we’ve built a wonderful life together with Pablo’s youngest son, Christiaan, and our beloved dog, Chase.In August 2024, life came full circle when we found ourselves working together once again, this time at the Brooklyn Park Police Department. Pablo now works in the jail, while Tara serves as a Police Officer.We can’t wait to celebrate our next chapter with all of you!
