Madalyn Chandler & Ryan Searcy

October 22, 2022 – Montgomery

“Ryan and I met at an Iron Bowl watch party in November of 2020. He came as a guest of a family member. We immediately hit it off and knew that there was something special about one another. We hung out many times after that in group settings with family and friends. During January of 2021, Ryan and I started dating. Fast forward to October 2 of 2021, he proposed to me at what was supposed to be his surprise birthday party. Little did I know that I had spent a whole month planning our engagement, not just his birthday. Our love story happened fast; it was like a Nicholas Sparks book – slowly, and then all at once. I knew when I met Ryan that he was special and would rock my whole world. He is my best friend and my number one. There is no better match for me than him!” – Madalyn

Advice From the Couple

“Our advice to other couples that are planning a wedding would be to not stress about the little details, especially during the week of the wedding. In the long run, no one attending will know what is missing except for you and overall you won’t even remember what isn’t there during the ceremony and reception. Focus on the fact that you are finally able to marry your best friend! That is by far the most important thing about the whole day.” – Madalyn
