Their Story

High School Sweethearts!

Jackson and Chandler met how any Jesus-loving couple should meet - a church trip. The summer of 2019, 15-year-old Jackson met little 15-year-old Chandler. The two quickly grew in their friendship. As Lindsey (Mother of the Groom) says, they were besties for the resties. Fast forward to March of 2021, Chandler sent the text that would change their lives - well, Alana (Mother of the Bride) sent the text, because Chandler was too scared. She asked Jackson to be her date to Junior prom, to which Jackson responded: "I'll think about it." He said yes, but of course he had to play a little hard-to-get. May 20, 2021, the couple arrived at Chukkar Farms for prom night, deciding for certain that they would make this relationship official. The two became inseparable, the best of friends. 3 years later, in the most beautiful, full-circle way, Jackson proposed to Chandler at Chukkar Farms on December 27, 2024. This is only the beginning of these two's story! We are so excited to celebrate their union.
