Christian and Taylor’s story began when they were just sixteen, working their very first jobs together at Elgin IGA. What started as simple shifts side by side quickly grew into something more, and on February 28, 2021, they officially began dating. From high school moments featuring two proms, to graduation and beyond, their love story has been filled with milestones. When Christian joined the military and left for basic training, Taylor was still finishing her senior year of high school. Even through the distance, their bond only grew stronger. Now, after almost five years together, Christian and Taylor have built a life filled with laughter, support, and true friendship. They are not only high school sweethearts, but also each other’s best friend—and they can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter of their love story with all of you!!
