Our Wedding

It all started online in January 2025. On their very first date, Emma boldly told Tate that if he didn’t see a future with her after six dates, it probably wasn’t meant to be. Challenge accepted — and by date two, at the Central District Christmas Party, Tate was completely sold. Just a month later, they took their first trip together to Miami Beach, Florida, where Tate told Emma he loved her. From that moment on, falling in love became the most special adventure. From cooking classes to gun range dates and countless concerts, Emma and Tate have filled their time with laughter, spontaneity, and joy in both the big and little moments. A few months later, a spontaneous trip to Colorado became one they’d never forget. Hoping to escape the busyness of everyday life, they set off for the mountains. On their second day there, at the breathtaking Sprague Lake, Tate got down on one knee. Every detail was perfect — from the view to the photographer waiting in place to capture it all. It was the best day of their lives, filled with happy tears, laughter, and a moment that felt straight out of a dream. What started as a simple connection quickly became a love that feels steady, joyful, and full of adventure. They’re grateful every day to have found one another and can’t wait to spend a lifetime making memories together. Now, they can’t wait to begin their next adventure together — forever.
