In the early months of 2020, Taylor and Chad, affectionately known as "Swade," crossed paths. Initially, their connection revolved around business, as Swade sought Taylor's meal prep services to kickstart a healthier lifestyle. Despite harboring romantic feelings for Taylor, Swade maintained a professional demeanor during their interactions. Time passed, and one of Taylor's friends began working alongside Swade, sparking the idea that they would make a perfect couple. This subtle suggestion set the stage for the beginning of a power couple. Then, on the morning of April 5, 2020, Swade received an unexpected call inviting him to a game night hosted by Taylor. That evening, their chemistry ignited, and the rest, as they say, is history. Following the spontaneous game night, the two hit it off, leading to them officially becoming a cohabitating couple by April 12, 2020. Embracing the pandemic-induced downtime, Taylor and Swade indulged in things that reminded them of their childhood, such as building a fort for their first date night. They also began trying new cuisines, and exploring cities with relaxed lockdown measures fostering their shared love for travel. Throughout and post-pandemic, Taylor and Swade have ventured to over 5 new countries together, bonding over their mutual appreciation for R&B music and globe-trotting adventures. With aligned business mindsets as young, successful entrepreneurs, Taylor and Swade support and motivate each other, embodying a perfect match characterized by their complementary personalities and shared experiences. Taylor is recognized for her self-motivation, loving spirit, and playful nature, while Swade is acknowledged for being versatile, well rounded, and humorous. Together, these two individuals, both water signs, have shown a remarkable ability to complement each other, growing and sharing life experiences in harmony. Excitement fills their hearts as they eagerly anticipate embarking on the next chapter of their journey, set to begin in the Spring of 2025, coinciding with their 5-year anniversary.

Taylor has a remarkable talent for making people feel extraordinary on their birthdays. Each year, she and Swade embark on an adventure to a different country to commemorate the occasion. For his milestone birthday, they chose Aruba, and upon their return, plans were set in motion for an extravagant 30th birthday party. When Swade handed Taylor the guest list, it pleasantly surprised her to see that it included some of her own family members. Given their long-standing relationship, it felt only natural to celebrate as a blended family. Unbeknownst to Taylor, this party held an unexpected surprise. As the festivities unfolded, Swade took the opportunity to propose, surrounded by both of their families. It was a truly magical moment, as he chose to share his special day with the love of his life, showcasing his selfless nature and willingness to share the spotlight. With Taylor's joyful acceptance, the couple embraced the moment and eagerly started envisioning their future together the very next day. It seemed fitting for them to opt for a destination wedding, considering their shared passion for travel. Since Jamaica held a special place in Taylor's heart and Swade's roots were there, it was an obvious choice for them to exchange their vows in the beautiful island of Jamaica.
