Our Story

We met in May 2022, thanks to our dear friend Toni Rogers. There was an immediate spark, but life took us in different directions for a brief moment — only to bring us back together in June 2023. Our reunion date lasted for hours, and something just clicked. A Tara-inspired Fourth of July party soon followed… and that was it — we were all in. From there, our story unfolded through the things we love most — travel, nature, adventure, and the simple joys of life. Together, we’ve floated above Mexico City in hot air balloons, hiked through the Dolomites, wandered Lake Como by boat, fell more in love in Paris, experienced Burning Man, scuba dived in Mallorca, hopped around Europe, and shared countless glasses of wine in Napa — with so much more still ahead. And yet, some of our favorite moments are the quiet ones — surrounded by family, friends, Landon and Braden, and our beloved dog, Jeffrey. As time went on, what we found was more than laughter and chemistry — it was a true partnership, grounded in understanding, trust, and shared joy. Somewhere between long conversations, spontaneous adventures, and the in-between moments, love took shape — steady, intentional, and undeniable. Rooted in kindness and deep appreciation for life’s blessings, we realized we had found something rare: a sense of home in one another. Now, surrounded by the people we love most, we are so grateful to celebrate the beginning of our forever. We can’t wait to celebrate with you this weekend — and to share many more adventures in the years ahead.
