As Haley stepped in Pearlz Oyster bar in May 2017, she spotted Dallas across the room and felt her belly flutter with anticipation. Haley and Dallas both grew up in West Columbia along with a slew of mutual friends. By January 2017, Dallas had completed his time in the military as a United States Army Ranger and had moved back to Lexington during the transition. Haley was several years into her in-house public relations career. The two saw each other at a local restaurant when they were meeting mutual friends and — for the first time in years of sharing friends — Haley and Dallas spoke to one another. Sparks flew. Their magic began that night. The world seemed brighter and the days seemed shorter. They were almost inseparable for that first year. The two became even closer when Dallas bought a house in September 2018. They brought home their beautiful baby girl, Matilda Joye, to that little house, they hosted many cookouts and hangouts, and they adopted a dog, Beans, and a cat, Jeffy. The family of three moved across town in October 2021. After their wedding, they are excited to host future cookouts and bring home more babies to their new home as husband and wife!
