Tanner and Caitlin first met… well, that’s actually still a mystery. It might have been Mercer County Elementary. Or King Middle School. Or maybe in 3rd grade when Tanner was busy minding his own business and Caitlin was probably already telling someone what to do. No one can say for sure. What is certain is that somewhere between recess and middle school science class, a friendship formed, one that eventually turned into that classic “cheerleader falls for the football player” small-town romance you’d see in a feel-good movie. They became high school sweethearts at Mercer County Senior High, bonded through laughter, inside jokes, and the kind of playful bickering that made their friends roll their eyes. After graduation, life gently nudged them onto separate college paths, and they pressed pause on their story. Fast-forward through a cumulative 10 years of dating, 15 years of friendship, and one extremely spoiled dog named Boone (who 100% believes this wedding is about him), and here they are... finally tying the knot. Eventually, Caitlin and Tanner decided it was time to make things official. Tanner brings the soft-spoken charm, quiet wit, and calming presence… while Caitlin brings the big personality, the never-ending energy, and an Olympic-level talent for dragging Tanner to every social event within a 50-mile radius. Together, they’re the perfect balance: perfectly mismatched in all the right ways and living proof that love grows better (and definitely funnier) when two people keep each other on their toes.
