Our story began with a shared date at Discover Bank—a professional introduction that quickly bloomed into something much deeper. Like the native wildflowers of our Delaware home, our relationship has proven resilient through seasons of change, distance, and discovery. Whether moving across the country to Florida or returning to the familiar beauty of the coast, we realized that "home" wasn’t a location, but a person. On May 1, 2025, exactly four years to the day of our anniversary, Taylor asked Kennedy to be his bride, and she accepted without a moment's hesitation. Forging a New Path As we prepare to wed on October 1, 2027, we are doing more than just exchanging vows; we are planting the seeds for a new chapter. In a meaningful break from tradition, we will both adopt a new, shared surname: Santon. A thoughtful blend of our family trees—Lawton and Sanchez—this name symbolizes the integration of our pasts as we grow together into the future. A Palette Inspired by the Coast Our celebration will take place on cherished family land, held under the open Delaware sky. The aesthetic for the day is drawn directly from the resilient blooms of the coastline. Imagine the deep, soulful base notes of Meadow Moss and Wild Plum, brightened by the sun-drenched warmth of Baked Terracotta and the soft, romantic glow of Evening Rose. We invite our friends and family to draw inspiration from these natural, earthy tones when choosing their celebratory attire, helping us mirror the beauty of the late spring, early autumn landscape.
