Our Wedding

<p style="text-align: left;">Brandon and Taylor met in April 2021 while he was a first-year medical student and she was finishing her second year of undergrad, preparing for pharmacy school. Their connection was instant, and despite busy schedules, they made time for each other. For two years, they navigated long distance while Taylor attended pharmacy school in Amarillo. In her third year, she transferred to the Lubbock campus, where they finally got to live together. Then, on May 3, 2024, Brandon proposed at one of his good friend’s ranch—a place they often visited and held so many special memories. It was the perfect moment in a place that already meant so much to them. Shortly after, they took the next big step—buying a home together in Temple. While Taylor finished her last year of pharmacy school in Dallas, they managed yet another stretch of long distance, knowing it was all leading to the life they were building together. Now, after years of love, hard work, and a whole lot of miles traveled, they can’t wait to finally say “I do” and start this next chapter side by side. <br /></p>
