Our Wedding

In order to fully explain why this marriage is insanely incredible and a miracle, we will have to talk about some dark times too. Kirby and Taylor crossed paths in 2020 in Gainesville, Texas. They met each other in the rooms of recovery when they were trying to fight for a better life. There was instantly a connection between the two. They started off as best friends and on December in 6, 2020, in Hurst, Texas, they became a pair and were unstoppable from then on. There was no denying that they became inseparable and their personalities made them stand out. A lot of people helped Kirby and Taylor through their recovery and helped show them how to be the best for each other. Having a relationship in sobriety is difficult only because it’s so new and the emotions and feelings have to be learned all over again in a new light. They both had never had a love like this. It felt magical and unreal. They agreed they had found the one that they would marry. New experiences and a new life while being sober. They were head over heels. Addiction and alcoholism are unfortunately diseases that don’t care about who you’re in love with or how hard you have worked to have the life you fought for. It doesn’t care how little or how long you’ve been sober or how many amazing things that are going for you. It’s ruthless and will take precedence over anything and anyone if you don’t have a strong foundation of recovery. Kirby and Taylor ended up making each other their higher power, meaning they were choosing a person to be their God. The program of AA and NA, does not work that way. It must be a power greater than yourself. They were warned many times of this but just couldn’t seem to be able to break it. Taylor relapsed many times and hurt Kirby a lot in the first couple years. The fighting and arguments had become really bad. They progressed and only got worse as they tried to keep this relationship going. After 2 years, Kirby then relapsed. It was heartbreaking. They were complete opposites of who they were when they met. They continued to try to get sober but only would last a short time. They tried this on and off for the next year only to go deeper and darker each time they relapsed. Kirby and Taylor kept each other sick but at the same time just wanted so desperately to be who they were before all the darkness. On many occasions they could have killed each other. They ended up separating for a few months and in December ‘22, Kirby went off to treatment. Taylor followed shortly after in January of ‘23. They went to the same place and it had completely changed their lives. They came out two totally different people and so full of hope and determination to get their lives back. Kirby and Taylor lived separately after treatment but slowly worked on themselves, which in turn made them better for each other. They were not taking failure as an option and knew they were destined to be together. Kirby and Taylor fought harder than ever before for each other and their sobriety. The love that grew between them was absolutely incredible. It was like a whole different relationship with different people. Others could feel their love just sitting in the same room as them. It was clear that this was a miracle. They got to experience a new sober way of life, new adventures, new feelings, and a new love like nothing ever before. On June 24th, 2023, Kirby proposed to Taylor. It was so amazing and they were head over heels for one another. There was no life that could have ever been better than what they were experiencing. So as you can tell, when we said this is a miracle marriage, this is what we meant. Their relationship shouldn’t have made it. All odds were against them. They had no life left. Everyone was telling them to just give up on each other, that it was beyond toxic and it would never work. Because of their determination, recovery, definitely their Higher Power, and many other miracles, we get to experience this joining of two beautiful souls who are madly in love.🖤
