That's how all the good love stories start, right??

In July of 2021, Taylor moved from Columbia, Missouri to Denver, Colorado. Three weeks after she moved, she met a couple gals on Bumble BFF. One Saturday night, the girls planned to go bar hopping in LoDo. Little did they know, Tanner's friends had planned a surprise birthday party for him that same night. The birthday party included a bike bar around LoDo with the group wearing colorful sunglasses, rhinestones and beads. They really stood out to say the least.

While Tanner and his friends were pedaling around LoDo, Taylor and her friends stopped for a drink and some dancing at the Gin Mill. As they were dancing, one of Taylor's friends spotted the birthday group all dressed up in their beads and rhinestones walk into the bar. The girls had to investigate further. Taylor's friend walked over to the group and asked about their attire. The girls then found out about the birthday party and joined in the celebration. Taylor and Tanner were introduced to one another, and Tanner was immediately taken aback by her beauty. Taylor and her friends chatted with the group for a while longer before leaving to go to the bar next door, Herbs.

As Taylor and her friends were enjoying the live music, Tanner and his friends walked into Herbs. One of Tanner's friends came up to Taylor and asked if she wanted to talk to Tanner. Taylor said yes and began chatting and dancing with Tanner. They talked the rest of the night, and Taylor gave Tanner her number.

A week later they went on their first date to Jazz in the Park. There they enjoyed a little picnic that Taylor did not eat much of because she was too nervous. Since that first date, Taylor and Tanner have enjoyed many more fun times together. The pair got engaged February 3, 2024 and could not be more excited to share the rest of their lives together with their pup, Kola.
