We definitely balance each other out. Cody is very calm and reserved (unless he starts drinking as you can see from the reception photos lol), I am the outgoing, rambunctious one. Now, fast forward to the wedding, I always knew I wanted to get married in my father’s coastal hayfield with the sun setting behind us. We were also able to tie in rustic, southern, and Cajun traditions to create the most perfect day! Surrounded by our friends and family in my father’s hayfield, we were married by my father himself, and able to top it off with a couple of photos at my grandparent’s 100-year-old ranch.
Doing it all together is what has made it all worth it to them.
Matt proposed to Bailey on August 25, 2021. Bailey had been gone for a week visiting her mom in Missouri and had no idea! Matt dressed their daughter in a outfit that said “Mommy, will you marry Daddy?”, and he held her up for Bailey to read. He then got on one knee and popped the question!
STORY
“We started dating back in high school on March 3, 2019 – we are so close to 3 years!! The first time we ever hung out together we drove to get calf feed, our first unofficial date was to a rodeo in Glen Rose, TX and our first official date was to… you’ll never guess – another rodeo!! Needless to say, ‘western lifestyle’ explains us to a T, being that we spend most of our free time taking care of animals, spending long nights in a rodeo arena, or driving to these rodeos/ropings!
