their love story:

Brandon’s story: “I picked her up on the Honeysuckle Boat Dock”
Tiffanie’s story: “In August 2011 we did meet on Hayden Lake at the Honeysuckle Boat dock where a mutual friend invited me to go fishing after work. Let’s just say I didn’t love fishing so I went to the gym the first time all summer hoping to kill some time. I showed up in my workout clothing and they decided they were hungry so we went to dinner at the Boathouse bar and grill on Hayden Lake. I considered it a WIN! We hung out the following weekend where we enjoyed friends at a lake house and enjoyed Art on The Green weekend together where he decided it would be a great idea to meet up with his parents 😂. I tried to dip out of this situation but he assured me that he was just saying hi.. turns out he told his mom that he wanted her to meet me.
Brandon started his career on the BASSMASTER Elite Series in 2011 and had just finished his season upon our meeting. I didn’t understand the extend of a professional bass fisherman but I learned fast.
2013 I started traveling with him full time to get him with his career and to be able to make memories together and not always partaking in a long distance relationship. Around 2013, is when he “joked” about his Ten Year Plan. Dating 10 years before marriage.
2016 we adopted our dog Bella from a animal shelter in Georgetown, South Carolina.
Turns out the 10 year plan wasn’t a joke. In August it’ll be our 10 year anniversary.
He asked my parents to marry me on Dec 26, 2019 and nearly a year later on December 9, 2020 we went to take Christmas card photos at the Honeysuckle boat dock and after 3 photos he dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him.”

love from the bride:
“I never knew how many people would pay attention to the details of our day of stationary, invitations, stir sticks, napkins, etc. I had an enormous amount of my wedding guest comment how beautiful the invitations were. Our invitations that Heidi at Mango Ink designed and customized beautifully. She is incredible to work with and offer so much opportunity for making all of your stationary/invites/signage and much more come to life for the wedding or event. I didn't think I needed anything other than invitations but she offered and displayed so many beautiful options and helped tie everything together beautifully with no pressure just offers and helping hands. The communication was flawless, the delivery was beautiful, and ahead of schedule. I could go on and on about my experience but trust me, MANGO INK is a must have vendor for any event or wedding. Do yourself a favor and hire them you won't regret it.
