We're Getting Married!

Bailey and Ryan first met in early 2023 while working together at R&R Ace Hardware in St. Clair, Missouri. What began as months of playful banter and constant back-and-forth slowly turned into something more. By the summer of 2023, they realized that all the joking was really just their way of admitting they liked each other more than they let on. Their first official date was on August 6, 2023, at the Washington Town Fair, and from there, the hangouts never stopped. They made things official on August 23, 2023, and spent the next two wonderful years growing together—laughing often, supporting one another, and building a life side by side. On December 20, 2025, under the glow of candlelight, Bailey popped the question. Of course, the answer was yes. Every moment since that first meeting has led them here, and they can’t wait to celebrate their love with the people who mean the most to them.
