The two met at a now mutual friend's birthday party. Two days later Sierra got a message from an old classmate who knew Tanner confirming that the two both had interest in each other. Which led to Tanner sending the FIRST text message, which THENNN led to Sierra's birthday and Tanner surprising her, while also meeting Sierra's parents after it only being a week of talking. Fast forwarding to the next day, which was also the first "actual" date at Just Peachy Frozen Yogurt, hours of talking to each other and sharing stories led to where they are now. A lifetime of stories.
Tanner had bought the ring of 2017, during Labor Day weekend. After going to a few ring shops with his mom (Carilyn) he went back to the first one, which now most have seen...he did good.:) Once he had the ring, we all knew what the next step was, he asked Sierra's parents (Sal & Mona) over dinner when Sierra was with her sister (Savanna) for Homecoming. After what is usually seen as the hard part, Tanner then planned "The Proposal." The way Tanner was able to surprise her with everyone there (so thoughtful he wanted to do it when Dakota-Sierra's brother-was here too) ... So, his talented sister Stephanie is great with capturing moments with her professional camera, so the family asked her to "take some family photos while Dakota is home?". She then added the "Hey can I get some couple photos for my portfolio?" What seemed as the perfect timing, we all may add! Tanner held Sierra in his arms for what seemed as just them taking pictures, whispered in her ear "Your so beautiful...You make me so happy...You know I love you." Then well...we all know what happened next.:) The two who we all love are combining families and becoming one on March 2nd! You all are loved by the soon to be Husband & Wife as they ask for your presence on the day... So Don't be Late!
