Our Wedding

As some of you know, we could not stand each other when we first met. Let’s just say there were “conflicts of interest.” Somehow, after a series of unfortunate events, we became best friends.  But then, Noah left for Texas. The picture above is his goodbye party in 2019 a couple of days before he left to play semiprofessional soccer in Fort Worth , Texas.

The Beginning 

Then, COVID happened. Noah’s season was postponed, so he came home. During the next few months, we were basically inseparable. We spent almost every day hanging out, going golfing, and going to the lake. But, even though we both knew we were starting to catch feelings for each other, neither of us wanted to admit it. That was until my cousin Kate’s wedding. Noah asked to go with me, just as friends and I agreed because, why not. Love a good wedding date. Later that evening, we had “the talk,” admitting to each other and ourselves that we were something more.

More Than Friends

A few weeks after the wedding, Noah went back to Texas but we still had questions about where our relationship should go. So, we talked every day and got to know each other in a whole different light. Many a FaceTime, trips for me to Texas and him to Greenwood later, Noah finally asked me to be his girlfriend on January 1, 2021 in Fort Worth, Texas. We continued to have a long distance relationship for a few more months. After a rough patch in our relationship, we both decided that we were meant for each other. Shortly after, Noah left for a professional soccer trial in Europe.

Long Distance 

When Noah got back from Europe in early 2022, he moved in with me into my apartment in Summerville, SC. We had many adventures in Charleston and we expanded our little family in January, 2023 when we got our Samson. A couple of months later, I started travel nursing and we have been traveling around the US ever since.

The Next chapter 

In December, we took a break from traveling to spend the month with our family and friends and I knew that this was the time to ask her a very important question. In order to do so, I would need to have her busy. Luckily, she was in Greenville all day, so I had plenty of time to get ready. My dad came to help and we set the scene. Beside the pond on her family land, I made a circle of lights, played our song, and got a photographer to capture the moment that I would ask her to be mine forever and ever. At 6 pm on December 12, 2023, Houston and Mr. Kelly walked Taylor down to the pond where I got down on one knee, barely being able to speak, to ask her a question that will forever change our lives in the best way we could imagine. Will you marry me?
