Our Wedding

How We MetBack in April 2015, Tay came down to visit a friend—not expecting to meet someone who would completely change her life. At the time, she wasn’t looking for anything serious, having just come out of a toxic relationship. But after a few days of deep conversations, shared laughs, and realizing how much they had in common, Tay and TJ felt an instant connection.Even when Tay returned to Toronto, the two kept talking every day. As fate would have it, she was planning to move to Sarnia soon—and they were both excited to see where this connection might lead.⸻Our First “Date”May 8th, 2015 — the day TJ picked Tay up in Woodstock. What Tay didn’t know was that TJ had a surprise planned: a family BBQ. Yes, for their very first “date”!It could’ve been awkward, but it somehow just felt right. While TJ and his dad went on a beer run, Tay ended up having a long chat with Tammie (which included a few laughs and probably a few too many stories 😂).From that day on, they were pretty much inseparable—fishing trips, backroad drives, and many fry truck dates under the bridge.⸻A Funny MemoryOne day, after grabbing fries under the bridge, TJ took Tay for a drive—where he found a good dirt road to drift on (he was into that at the time). Tay, mid-poutine, suddenly got a “crunch” that definitely wasn’t from the fries… turns out, drifting kicks up more than just dust!It’s one of those ridiculous, real-life moments that perfectly sums them up: a little wild, a lot of laughter, and always together.⸻The ProposalFast forward to Christmas 2017, at the Carron Family Dinner. TJ had been secretly planning something big. When dinner was called, he asked Tay to get up to eat. She tried to wait (his family is huge), but he insisted. As she stood, he got down on one knee and asked her to spend forever with him.Spoiler: She said yes 💍⸻Where We Are NowNearly 11 years later, they’ve grown through everything—together and individually. Tay is now a full-time junior tattoo artist at a shop that feels like family. TJ has gone back to finish school to open up more opportunities for the future. They’ve built a home, loved many fur babies, shared countless adventures (big and small), and through all the ups and downs, one thing has never changed: They choose each other—every single day.

Written in the stars!

Our Story

Taylors side:

Hayllie & Tay go all the way back to elementary school. They hit it off immediately & we’re practically inseparable while growing up. Although younger, she’s such a inspirational person in Tays story. She's a dedicated, hardworking, loving mom & friend. We have not seen each other in person in close to 12 years. So it’s safe to say I'm so excited that she'll be able to make it in October and make one more huge memory!

Hayllie

Kiera is Hayllie’s oldest child, & her only daughter. From the moment Tay met Kiera, they have had a bond so pure & true. Having a niece like her is like having a sassy best friend for life. She is not just family. She is a little bit of curiosity, a whole lot of pure magic & joy. & she will forever be my favourite adventure!

Note from Tay- You are a little bit of childhood. wrapped up in so much love. I'll always be here by your side, cheering you on with so much love & pride. Forever & always 

Kiera

Laci is Taylor’s youngest sister on their dads side, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at them. Big sisters are often the ones who show you the way, even when the path seems uncertain. Surprisingly enough to some, Laci has been the one to show Tay the path most times.  She has the most infectious smile & laugh. When you see her all dressed up standing beside the bride on the big day, don’t make too much of a fuss. She’s sorta like her sisters that way, she might give you the stink eye! Haha

Laci

What started out as a conversation about tattoos & art led into a close friendship & confidant over the years. Jewel brings belly aching laughter & chaos & so so much love to the table. But in all the best ways possible! At the wedding, you'll find Jewel tearing up the dance floor or taking Instagram photos for anyone who asks. (You can trust she'll capture your best angles.)

TJ’s (Terry) Side:

If you've ever seen Damian and Terry together, you know their bromance runs deep. (So deep that Tay is jealous.) Who knew two gamer dudes, in different countries would turn into best friends years later?! The wedding day wouldn't be complete without Damian’s unforgettable presence!

Damian

Ashley is TJs very funny, loyal & generous older sister who has been there for us in countless ways over the years. If you ever need advice, you can always count on something good coming from her, even if it is just music suggestions. We are so happy that she could stand next to us on our wedding day.

Ashley

Meet TJs dad — the man who taught me the value of hard work, the importance of laughter, & how to grill the perfect steak. Before social media, there was Dad — always ready with unsolicited advice, & questionable fashion choices. Dad is the life of the party, whether we want him to be or not. He’s promised to keep his dance moves ‘wedding appropriate,’ but we all know the sprinkler and the lawnmower are making an appearance.

Terry 

He’s the little brother TJ never had & the most annoying person all rolled into one. Most days you can find him with his nose in his phone with those around him, yelling his name just to get his attention. At the wedding, NO PHONES for him hahah
