we're getting married!

Brandon and Taylor first met at Hillcrest Middle School, where they shared a few classes and quickly became friends. High school came along, and while freshman year was all about "finding themselves" (aka being mildly confused 24/7), sophomore year is when things really started to click. They became super close, gave each other daily hallway hugs, and lovingly called each other buddy pal (romantic, right?). From sophomore year through the middle of senior year, they were constantly talking and hanging out. Being part of the same friend group meant they were always in each other’s orbit. Then January 2020 rolled around and plot twist, they realized they actually liked each other. Like, liked-liked. On February 28, 2020, Brandon officially asked Taylor to be his girlfriend. They’ve been inseparable ever since. Fast forward 5.5 years later—on July 12, 2025—Brandon got down on one knee and asked Taylor to marry him. She said yes (of course!), and now they’re counting down to the next best date on their calendar: October 17, 2026. Look at the gallery tab to see pictures of us from over the years!
