Our Wedding

<p>December 19, 2014, where it all began...</p><p>Well not really. If you ask Taylor, where it all began would have been at the beginning of the school year in August. If you ask Austin, he had his eye on me before this and I had no clue. If you really go back in time, our first real crush started back in preschool as we were always "documented" around each other (pictures for proof). As we began really getting to know each other, the amount of meaningful synchronicity in our lives over the years that in turn brought us together is like those in the movies. Cheesy, I know, but more than that, meant to be. We really enjoy connecting over these moments in conversation. Austin and I had no intention of looking for a relationship at the beginning of the 2014 school year (isn't that how all the best, lasting relationships begin?). The actual bonding began in our first class together. Art class, which also happened to be taught by my Aunt in which he already had previous classes and a great relationship with. Knowing of each other but not previously in the same friend groups, we unintentionally sat at the same table as one another where we were the only two at the table. This sparked small talk which led to our fondness and curiosity for one another. The conversations became endless as we spent more time together, becoming the best of friends. The funny thing is, if you ask my Aunt, we didn't get a single project done that year in art and its something we still laugh about when brought up in conversation. She got a unique perspective and front row seat to the beginning of our love story. We also had link crew seminar together which was also taught by her (how lucky she is to watch over us). Our time getting to know each other was truly so much fun. As we spent more time together, we met and fell in love with each others families. This brought us more memories together and here we are still creating them today more in love than ever. There are so so many stories we could share from our years together but building this relationship and growing up together after starting our relationship as best friends is something we will forever be thankful for! We just wanted to share a little glimpse of the beginning and the strong loving relationship we built that we get to celebrate with you on our special day!</p>
