In October 2016, at Taylor’s 24th birthday party, a PA school classmate named KP asked if she could bring along a close friend for a night of celebrating. That night, Taylor met Kylie — who would eventually become her sister-in-law — without realizing she’d also become the invisible string tying this story together years later. Fast forward to the summer of 2023, when Chad came across Taylor on a dating app. Recognizing her immediately, Kylie passed Chad’s number along to Taylor. And in true Taylor fashion, while trying to save his contact information, she accidentally called him — right in the middle of his morning work meeting. After months of texting, dates, and getting to know one another, Taylor and Chad officially began dating on August 12, 2023. What followed were countless trips, hikes, adventures, meaningful conversations, T learning to golf, and the joy of building a life together — especially around their dogs, Nash and Brody. On June 19, 2025, Chad completely shocked Taylor when he asked her to marry him at the summit of Stowe Pinnacle in Vermont — a moment as unforgettable as the journey that led them there. And now, after choosing an intimate elopement with their immediate families back in Stowe, VT, they’re so excited to celebrate their greatest adventure yet with the people they love most at their happily ever after party at the Carlisle Ribbon Mill. Cheers to the Martiers 🥂
