Please take a look at the FAQ section of the website! I personally don’t like surprises, so I try to not surprise anyone else :)

The moment our lives changed forever!
How We Met
This was the night that I was supposed to go to a Charlotte Hornets basketball game. My ride fell through so I wasn’t able to go, so I stayed at my friends house, Connie, that I met from working at Stack House in Mars Hill. Connie and I were making dinner when she told me she had a friend coming over in a few that she wanted me to meet. Tyler then walked in the door and said hi to me and sat on the couch while I was putting barbecue sauce on the ribs. Connie said that she had to go to the gas station, so me and Tyler stayed behind. I was nervous to talk to him, but he also seemed nervous to talk to me. I felt the need to break the ice as we were eating dinner at the table, so I started picking on him because he was eating ribs with a fork. We ate and laughed then started playing monopoly and getting to know each other while watching tv. By the time Connie returned from the gas station, Tyler and I were cuddled up on the couch watching tv. We have been together ever since.

Maid of Honor
Kaylon and I met in college, however it was not my college. I first met Kaylon as my sisters roommate at Mars Hill. She was very outgoing and as a fellow outgoing person I loved her from the beginning. From sneaking me into the quarantine dorms during Covid to kids birthday parties, she has been an amazing friend. If we didn’t live so far from each other, I could guarantee we would be together 24/7. Probably going to moe’s or getting coffee. Hopefully next time we don’t have to share a bed so I don’t have to hear her snore in my ear. But since then, I guess you could say I still wanted to be her friend :)

How I met shrimps, It was a hot or cold day I don’t know at mars hill university and I didn’t want to get out of bed. I forced myself up and went to my 8am and sat down in the back of Global Perspectives on Religion. Maybe 5-or 15 minutes later this little girl walks in and I’m like who’s baby sister got lost on tour but no she actually has a class. Yada yada we notice each other obviously cause we’re the only brown people in there. Then we went back to our dorms found THIS CHILD LIVES IN THE DORM RIGHT ON TOP OF ME. Then we just started talking more and hanging out JUST BEFORE I found out I was pregnant with my son. Since then she hasn’t left mine or her nephews side. Telling her second about my pregnancy was easily the best decision I made simply because she took care of me she made sure my craving of BBQ chips was fulfilled because let me tell you knowing about a baby when you’re in the middle of a training season is scary for someone who wasn’t ready. But kaylon knew that and she helped me get ready. I would be the mother I am if it wasn’t for her.

Bridesmaid
I met Kaylon my freshman year at Mars Hill. We met because we cheered together. At first I felt so out of place and alone at MHU and she was one of the only people to reach out to me and actually try to get to know me. Her friendship made my transition into college so much easier and I am so grateful for that. I’m so honored to be able to be apart of her bridal party and I cannot wait to stand next to her on her big day!

Kaylon and I met at MHU in January of 2021 through our mutual friends. After joining the cheer team our friendship only got stronger! Kaylon has always been a friend I can count on and now I can’t wait to stand by her side on her wedding day!🤍
Brett
Best Man
So me a Tyler first met in 2009 through a friend of his that lived at the house with him an his parents! We went fishing a few times all of us together an something's happened and yet hanging out we became inseparable! There wasn't a day or a evening we didn't end up fishing or doing something crazy together with other friends for almost 3 years straight an there was sometimes that one of us was lucky we didn't get hurt because we honestly were just living life! I've always looked at Tyler as my brother not a friend he's been with me threw hard times just as I have been with him threw hard times an I always knew I could always call him an talk to him because he was only a phone call away! I'm proud to call him my best friend and my brother and I couldn't be more happy for him at this point in his life!!

Me and Tyler met in high school. Algebra I think... it's one of those friendships where you meet one day and your friends the next 15 years. From hanging out in parking lots to working on trucks in the garage. Now I'm watching him get married. Glad to see him happy.

Well I met Tyler in the McDonald’s parking lot in like 2013 or 14 and we just hung out at any given parking lot no matter what time it was. We’ve been there for each other ever since.

Yellow Mug Coffee Lounge
This awesome coffee shop sells breakfast and lunch all day. It’s one of my personal favorites because if you know me, you know that I could eat breakfast anytime of the day. They also have really good coffee and juices!

FAQs
Question
Is flash photography allowed?
Answer
Unfortunately, flash photography will not be allowed. I would like for the photographer and videographer to have plenty of room to do their jobs. I would prefer not to look back at pictures/videos and see a bunch of phones and flashing. The reception will have plenty of time for everyone to take pictures if you choose to!
Question
Are children allowed?
Answer
Because of limited space, the ceremony and reception will be adults only! Children will not be allowed to attend besides the ones that are a part of the wedding party!
Question
Are wedding plus ones included in the count?
Answer
As wedding planning is a very busy time, I trust you guys to make sure of that when you put your info on the link you originally filled out. When you go to RSVP, if your name is the only one listed, your plus one is not included in the head count. Also, we are at our max number of occupants for the venue. The only way we could squeeze someone in at this point is if someone lets me know very early that they will not be attending. If you know me, you know I have 3 families to account for instead of the traditional 2 so, space will be very limited!
Question
What type of wedding gifts are preferred?
Answer
Cash, cash, cash! We are still looking for our new home and have limited space for new home gifts, so cash is definitely perfect!
Question
What is the parking going to be like?
Answer
I would strongly recommend carpooling. And not wearing heels! The parking lot is unfortunately very small and it is a gravel lot ladies!
Question
Are there colors that I’m not allowed to wear?
Answer
I don’t want to be too much of a bridezilla, but I strongly recommend not wearing our wedding colors(fall/burnt orange, maroon/cabernet reds, and emerald greens! This gives the wedding party their chance to shine!
Question
How does RSVP work and when should I RSVP by?
Answer
The RSVP will strictly be online only! There will be no RSVP cards! This website will have all information you could possibly need! If you have any questions of course feel free to reach out! Please RSVP no later than June 30th!
Question
Will the wedding be inside or outside?
Answer
Unless weather rains on our parade, we plan for the wedding to be outside. There are inside accommodations as well just in case!
Question
What time should I arrive at the wedding?
Answer
I would definitely recommend coming at least 30 minutes early to find parking(carpooling is recommended!) That way any of your needs can be met and your seats can be found on time!
Question
Can I post pictures on social media?
Answer
Those of you who engage heavily with social media, please wait to post and pictures or videos unless they are of yourselves until after I have posted!
Question
I have more questions…who do I contact?
