Kylie and Tanner first met in Boise in October 2017, and it was one of those rare moments where you just know something special is about to begin. Kylie turned heads at a Halloween party in a full leopard onesie, complete with paws and a tail—a bold, unforgettable move that caught Tanner’s attention. Fate brought the two together again the next month at Friendsgiving, when Tanner sent Kylie a DM asking for the recipe for her famous jalapeño cranberry salsa. From that moment on, they never stopped talking. By April 16, 2018, Tanner asked Kylie to be his girlfriend, starting a nearly eight-year adventure filled with laughter, love, and countless memories. They’ve taken finals-week road trips to concerts, explored new cities like New Orleans, enjoyed multiple trips to Mexico—because nothing beats a fresh margarita on the beach—and, through it all, learned how to be better partners for one another. Over the years, they’ve celebrated milestones big and small: college graduations, career changes, the loss of loved ones, and everything in between, always standing by each other’s side through the good and the challenging times. After nearly eight years of adventures, trips, and one long-awaited engagement on July 25, 2025, Kylie and Tanner are gearing up for their next great adventure: marriage. They’re ready to love each other even more—as husband and wife—and celebrate with everyone who has cheered them on along the way.
Golden retrievers rule the house. Bo (11) and Olive (almost 2) keep life entertaining…and the Dyson vacuum busy. Water is life. Whether it’s hot tubs, lakes, the ocean, or the slopes, they’re happiest anywhere there’s water. Sports are just an excuse. To host friends, eat way too much, and cheer a little louder than necessary. Medical dramas. Watching them is a serious hobby—mostly because they like pretending they’re doctors. Game nights. Card games, board games, you name it—they love a good challenge (and a little friendly competition). Teamwork is color-coded. Blue tasks for Tanner (mowing the lawn, trash duty), pink tasks for Kylie (cooking, grooming the dogs), with grilling as their shared strategy to minimize dishes. Costco and In-N-Out are sacred. Weekly pilgrimages, always in that order, because nothing says love like a double-double after buying bulk toilet paper.
