Our Story

June 13 2018

Tyler and Kendra Met through mutual friends during her summer home from college. They were friends for a few weeks but that turned quickly into dating starting June 13 2018 when Tyler officially asked Kendra to be his girlfriend. When Kendra headed back to college at the University of South Dakota the two did long-distance for a short time. Tyler had decided that Kendra was the girl he would chase and after a short time of long-distance Tyler decided to move to Brookings to be closer to Kendra. After a year of being together, the two moved home to Minnesota to be closer to family and to start a family of their own by adopting an 8-week old golden retriever known by many now as Max. Over the years the couple has enjoyed doing things like camping, traveling, spending time with their dog, and motivating each other to try new things.

The Proposal

July 9 2021

On a Friday morning, Kendra had woken up and gone to work, while at work a couple of her friends had surprised her and brought her to get her nails done. Kendra didn't think anything of it because it was not unusual for them to all get their nails done together. After the nails Kendra and her friends went to Qudoba to get some lunch, Little did Kendra know that at this time Tyler and all their friends and family were gathering for a very special surprise. After lunch, Kendra thought she and her friends were going to look for a house that was for sale. Kendra and her friends had ended up at the Luceline Orchard that Kendra and Tyler would always go to with the Kendra family. Kendra had once told Tyler that when the day had come that they were going to get engaged that she wanted to look nice and have her nails done. Considering Kendra was in sweats with food on her shirt when we pulled up it's a very good thing Tyler had listened. He had packed a dress, shoes, and make-up for Kendra to get ready in his car. Tyler was so prepared that he put blankets and sheets up over all the windows and prepared a changing room for her. Once Kendra and her friends started to walk from the parking lot to the orchard, she found her dad who was waiting for her with Max of course. They continued to walk down a trail and Kendra was greeted by her friends and family who were waiting with a flower for her. This led Kendra to Tyler where he asked her to marry him.

How we picked our date

On June 17, 2019. Kendra and Tyler made a big step in their relationship and decided to adopt a puppy together for their first anniversary. When picking a wedding date the couple wanted to pick a day they could relate with an important meaning. When Kendra found out that Max’s gotcha day landed on a Saturday in June the two knew that this would be the perfect day for them to get married. On June 17, 2019, kendra and Tyler added max into their relationship and on June 17, 2023, the three will officially become a family.
