Some love stories start with a grand moment, but ours began with passing glances in the hallways of our school. We weren’t in the same grade, never shared the same friend group, and never really spent time together. Taylor, a year ahead, had her world, and Devon had his. We knew of each other, but that was all.

Fast forward to December 2022—life had taken us in different directions, and high school felt like a lifetime ago. Then, fate (or maybe just a Tinder algorithm) brought us back together. We both swiped right, not out of romantic interest, but simply because we recognized each other. What started as a casual reconnection quickly turned into something unexpected.

We told ourselves—and everyone else—that we were just friends. But with every conversation, every laugh, and every moment spent together, something deeper grew. Friends and family saw it before we did, constantly saying, “You two are perfect for each other.” We rolled our eyes, shrugged it off, and insisted we were just friends. But love has a way of sneaking up on you when you least expect it.

Somewhere along the way, we realized that what we had was more than just friendship—it was home. And now, here we are, getting married, ready to spend forever with the person we never saw coming but somehow always felt meant to find.

We can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with all of you!
