Our Love Story (third person with first person anecdotes)

It all began at Gloo Headquarters in Boulder, Colorado where a few people, including Tayloe, were in town from Barna. Brice had just arrived in town for work when he noticed someone new in the office kitchen.

“I turned the corner and saw the most beautiful girl with striking blue eyes! There was something about her that stopped me in my tracks. I knew I had to introduce myself and we quickly bonded over the Kansas City Chiefs. That first conversation was short, but it left an impression on both of us.” - Brice

As God would have it, their paths would continue crossing. Another work trip aligned providing opportunity for another small conversation and the friendship began to grow. Each time, the conversations grew longer, laughter a little louder, and the connection between them undeniable. Eventually, Brice worked up the courage to ask Tayloe out to dinner. That night, something clicked. From that moment on, they were inseparable. They started talking every night, sometimes for hours, and despite the miles between them, it felt like they were always close. God continued laying the path before them in ways that felt too perfect to be coincidence. They both knew that faith was at the center of the life they wanted to build, and that became one of the most magnetic things about each other. They prayed together, talked about each other's walks with God, and saw in each other a faith and value system that felt like home.

Before long, Brice and Tayloe officially started dating in Dallas, and every trip after that made it even more clear—they had found something truly special.

“Not long after, we shared a moment we’ll never forget. It was late at night in a snow covered Breckenridge when Brice suddenly pulled the car over. He got out, grabbed my hand, and twirled me around under the warm string lights. As I laughed in surprise, he held me close and said, “I love you.” It was the most natural, effortless moment, and I knew without a doubt that I loved him too.” - Tayloe

From the very beginning, their faith and values aligned so perfectly that seeing a future together wasn’t something they had to work to imagine—it was something they just knew. Tayloe's friends noticed how different she was with him, how much joy and laughter filled the relationship, and how deeply at peace she was. They all knew Brice was the one before she even had to say it. And it wasn’t just Tayloe—Brice’s friends and family could see the change in him too. There was a lightness in his step, a joy in his eyes, and a love that made him absolutely giddy. For both of them, this love wasn’t just something they felt—it was something everyone around them could see.

Just four months later, on a cool evening in Kansas City as the sun set and a light breeze blew through their hair, Brice got down on one knee at Shawnee Mission Park and asked Tayloe to be his forever.

“It was the easiest ‘yes’ I’ve ever said.” - Tayloe

To make the moment even sweeter, Brice had planned a surprise engagement party with their closest friends. That night was filled with so much love, laughter, and happy tears—it was the perfect way to celebrate the beginning of their forever.

Now, as they count down the days until September 13th, they’re overwhelmed with gratitude for how God has written their love story. Every step, every conversation, and every moment has led Brice and Tayloe to this—their greatest adventure yet.
