Our Wedding

A High School Romance!

Taylor and Nate met while in middle school, and boy, did Taylor have a crush on Nate!! Nate and Taylor still were only friends for a few years, but then, something about Sophomore year sparked something for the couple that started their happily ever after!! November 23rd, 2013 was the day Nate asked Taylor to be his girlfriend and she happily said yes!! Through ups and downs, rough times and fun times, the two always found their way back to each other. 8 years later, Nate got Taylor to say yes again by asking her to be his wife over a gorgeous dinner at Pier W on December 26th, 2021. Now on September 28th, 2025, Nate will get Taylor to say yes one last time as they share their wedding with you to say, "I do".

Sean Patterson

The Parents of the LoveBirds

The incredible woman that helped Taylor become the woman she is today. Taylor wouldn't know what to do without her mother in her life. Anything and Everything Taylor has ever been through, Michelle was always there to hold her hand and support Taylor. Guidance, support, patience, and love helped create the greatest Mother Daughter relationship any girl could ask for.

Michelle Ward

The first man to ever have Taylor's heart ever since she was oh so little. What better man to raise his little girl than Brian. Never once did Brian ever not help Taylor when it came to learning something in life. From helping her with school, to learning how to drive, to simple iconic movie quotes. If Taylor ever needed someone to save her from anything, big or small, you can count Brian will always be there
