The Wedding Of
Samantha
and
Sanderson
Our Story..
8/28/21
Dress Party
The best party Molly has ever thrown (but maybe we're biased) and in walks a man in a hawaiian shirt and a purple skirt. A night of flirting, maybe some kissing, and ending with a promise for a first date.

The Beginning
Shortly after the party, a few texts here and there, and we planned and attended our first date at a Traveler's baseball game. Not long after that were we introducing each other to our friends, and officially being together.

Woo Pig Sooie!
One thing about us, is that we love a good football game, and this may be due to the memories we made on our first get away trip to NWA to watch the hogs play. #WooPigSooie

Said “I love you”
We got together to celebrate Donavyn's birthday at Bear's Den, and after a couple of cocktails and ringing in the new year we started 2022 with "I love you."

Pack your bags Sandy!
After a weekend of helping move Aunt Kat in Forth Worth Texas, Sam shared her usual Saturday cup of coffee with her dad, and expressed the security in her relationship. That weekend we planned on moving in together over the summer.

Somewhere down a river
The summer trips spent floating down the river have been well cherished in our relationship. Whether that be with our crazy friends or family, we know we are making good memories with good company.

One year down
As time went on, we eventually reached our one year anniversary, and things were just getting started. During this year, Sam learned that Sanderson is a bit of a night owl compared to her usual 10:00 bed time. Sanderson learned that a lemon zest candle puts a smile on her face. We both learned that this thing might be working out.

Master’s graduation/ Chiefs game
Instead of walking the stage, Sam's family planned a getaway vacation to see her favorite team, the Kansas City Cheifs! (Pre Taylor Swift) A weekend of football, cosmopolitans + champagne, and murder mystery. Sam earned her Master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis and Sanderson and Sam's mom learned they may actually have a chance at an acting career... really we have videos. '

He asked my dad
As another day of floating started, Sanderson had another big activity in mind. As the float winded down, Sam's father and Sanderson went to go pick up the truck, Sanderson asked Pete for his blessing to marry his daughter. And so the engagement planning began!

The "Yes" Day
During our vacation in Tulum, Mexico, Sam had no idea that Sanderson was in kahootz with her Aunt Sandra and Tio. On Sunday afternoon, Sanderson snuck Sam away and asked for her hand in marriage on the balcony of our room; it was equally private and special. We both came back to the pool, and were able to suprise Sam's parents and celebrate the entire vacation as fiancé's, and have looked foward to this day since.
