Where to even start… Kylie and Sam have known each other since they were 8 years old, but didn’t start dating until almost 5 years after college. Though they’ve done partial long-distance for some time now, they have created such a sweet life for themselves—living in Maine with their two Australian Shepards and enjoying all things nature. Kylie rehabilitates animals, so getting married at the Florida Aquarium was a dream come true. 

One especially memorable part of the night was when the Florida Aquarium staff brought out a hawk and a barn owl for guests and the couple to take photos with. A barn owl was the first animal that Kylie was able to rescue, rehabilitate, and then release—it’s her spirit animal!

Kylie and Sam are easy-going, carefree people who love living in the moment. Their entire guest list flew from Maine to celebrate these two tying the knot, so it truly was a big celebration. Guests were definitely taking to the dance floor and showering this couple with love all throughout the night.
