Really we should say a huge THANK YOU to Emilie and Chandler for introducing us. There were countless opportunities where our paths would have crossed prior to our actual meeting, but as fate would have it, we were introduced by our close friends during a night out at the ATL Battery.
Really since our first date after that initial meeting, we became close. We spent a lot of time together getting to know one another, meeting families and friends, and eventually, we took some larger steps in moving in and buying a house!
I think the best part about our first encounter was neither of us was searching for a relationship. We were both focused on growing ourselves and ultimately fate led us to one another when the time was right for us both!
We both have grown monumentally over the course of our relationship and our relationship continues to grow with our personal accomplishments.
Dating Megan, in the beginning, was amazing. I really had to catch myself wondering if this is too good to be true.
The moment that I knew I wanted to ask Megan to marry me was when she surprised me with an event poster that was for a Critrium bike race, Crawfish boil and local beers at one event. It was a great day and one of my favorite days together.
Even when we first started dating I went up to Charlotte for a just for the day to spend time with Megan and she found a low country shrimp boil at a local brewery. She always thinks of others before her self and I can't wait to marry someone with that kind of heart.
Riley and I really wanted to make sure our wedding was memorable for not only us but our guests as well. We wanted this to be an experience of a lifetime!
Riley’s first all inclusive experience was in Jamaica on a family vacation, and he couldn’t have loved it more.
We want all our closest friends and family to have the opportunity to celebrate our marriage, while kicking back at the beach for a few days.
We hope this trip gives you a chance to relax and enjoy some much needed time away!
On 2/19/2021, exactly one year before our planned destination wedding in Mexico, Riley and I decided to get married.
We did this for a few different reasons, but mainly we wanted to be sure Riley’s mother, Tracy, would have the opportunity to share this moment with us. After years of being sick, and finding out her cancer diagnosis, we couldn’t take a chance and wait until Mexico.
This wedding was limited to only immediate family members, and had restrictions with the covid-19 pandemic at full speed. We also felt it was important to respect Tracy’s privacy during this time and share our news when it makes sense.
On 6/26/2021 we lost Tracy to cancer. She was so incredibly proud of us and so happy to have lived seeing this special moment of her son.
We wan to make sure our family and friends know how happy and blessed we are to have them be apart of our wedding plans in Mexico celebrating not only our wedding, but also our first year of marriage.
We know that Tracy will be with us in spirit, drinking a Bloody Mary from above. Rest In Peace Tracy.
Thank you to you all for understanding our circumstances and joining us for our special day.
Kyle is one of my closest friends. He's really more than a friend; he's family. He is trustworthy and extremely dependable. He is always there for me, whenever and for anything. I am proud to have him standby my side as my best man, and I am truly grateful for all the memories we've had.
I've known Kyle for over 7 years and we have still managed to friends since day 1. Kyle's sense of humor will make anyone laugh and have a good time.
I have so many memories to share about Kyle, but none are appropriate enough for Megan to approve being posted on our website...
Thank you Kyle for being a HUGE part of our day.
Trent has been in my life since we were 6 years old. We grew up next door and spent all of our childhood together. Trent and his family were really instrumental in getting me into the cycling industry and helping me find my favorite passion. We spent all our free time together including countless hours outside riding scooters, bikes, etc all over the neighborhood.
Trent even trusted me enough to push him around in a wheel chair after he broke his legs. Disclaimer: I did not break his legs.
Trent has been apart of all my major milestones. I am so lucky to have had a friend like him for so much of my life. Hopefully there won't be anymore wheelchairs anytime soon!
Bosch is one of the most goal oriented people I know. He rolled into Roswell bicycles like hot "stuff," but you already know Kyle put him in his place. Since working together for last 5 years, we have been a tight knit group.
Bosch is always up for a night out. Except when we go to the beach and he falls asleep at 8PM. Regardless, Bosch is a great guy and I am grateful to have him in my life and apart of our wedding.
Ryan and I have known each other from the track for a really long time. We really started getting closer these last four years and he has been apart of both Megan and my lives. We have had some great times at Taco Tuesday, even if Megan can't remember them all.
We really appreciate your friendship and willingness to be down for anything! You have done an awesome job being the last single friend and we can't wait until you meet that special someone. I look forward to many more tacos, beers, and game nights. We are really happy to have you join us for this next big step!
Biggin, being my older brother, has been harassing me since the womb. Although we fought like cats and dogs, we had some really memorable moments growing up. Brandon was always willing to drive me around when I was younger and took me to the BMX track quite a bit. He helped me get a flipped four wheeler out of the mud, and didn't kill me when his sunglasses got lost...
Fishing with Brandon and my Grandfather at the lake were some of the best times I had as a kid. When it comes down to it, Brandon is family and always has my back. I am lucky to have a brother and am happy to have him be apart of this day.
