Oh. My. Heart. I have ALWAYS loved a love story that starts young. And I think I always will. THIS is a good one. Tyler was attending Cortland Christian Academy in Central NY where he was involved in orchestra and soccer. Abigail was homeschooled but started participating in both orchestra and soccer at CCA part time. The first time Abigail went to watch the orchestra to help her decide which instrument to play, she laid eyes on Tyler Baran, the boy playing percussion, and was immediately intrigued. They were 12 years old.

As the next couple of years passed, they started talking more and more, Abigail would leave sweet notes in Tyler’s locker, and ultimately became best friends. They were an item all through their high school years and as Tyler said, “it was by God’s grace that He kept them together the whole time.”

Abby and Tyler love God and are committed to putting Christ at the center of their marriage. They had a beautiful and spiritual wedding ceremony where they honored God through the message and their vows. This was such a special wedding as they held the ceremony at Tyler’s parents house and the reception was at one of the barn a part of Abby’s family farm.

This entire wedding just filled my heart. Abby and Tyler are SO DARN CUTE and all day long I was like “you’re so adorable!!!” And they really, really are. Here’s a bride and groom who are so, so excited to be married and have waited a long time to get there. And I for one love to see a young love story succeed. I wish you so many blessing on your marriage Abigail and Tyler!
