There’s something magical about love that’s built on adventure—on new places, new challenges, and the deep trust. For Tayia and Travis, their love story began like many modern romances do, on Hinge, but what followed has been anything but ordinary.
Both working in the medical field, these two have made a life that’s constantly on the move. From the East Coast in North Carolina to breathtaking destinations around the U.S., their relationship has been filled with adventure and intention. So when it came time to plan their wedding, a traditional event just didn’t feel right. For Tayia and Travis, quality has always mattered more than quantity, and that philosophy shaped every detail of their wedding day.
Instead of a grand ballroom or crowded guest list, they chose the red rock beauty of Sedona, Arizona as the backdrop for their intimate wedding. Surrounded by about 20 of their closest family and friends, Tayia and Travis created a day that felt true to them—simple, adventurous, and full of heart.
The day began just as they had envisioned: with a quiet adventure in the red rocks. Before the ceremony, the couple explored the stunning landscape nearby, soaking in the stillness and scenic views as the morning light danced across the cliffs.
Afterward, the couple exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony with their favorite people surrounding them. There were no distractions, just love—raw, real, and beautifully honest. Their wedding was more than a celebration; it was a reflection of the life they’re building together, one that values presence over perfection and meaningful moments over grand gestures.
Tayia and Travis, thank you for showing us what it means to create a wedding that feels like you. Your story is a reminder that eloping isn’t about running away—it’s about running toward something that matters deeply.
Here’s to a lifetime of travel, purpose, and loving each other fiercely through every new chapter. Sedona was just the beginning.
