Taylor and Dylan met two years ago in Paris, France, while on a BYU accounting study abroad. They quickly became close friends, and after traveling together that summer, their friendship turned into something more.

Soon after they started dating, Taylor moved to Washington, D.C. for work, and they began a long-distance relationship that lasted over a year and a half. While the distance wasn’t easy, they made the most of it with monthly visits and trips together to Puerto Rico, the California coast, Southern Utah, New York City, and D.C.

In July, Dylan proposed to Taylor in Lake Powell. Not long after, he packed up his car and moved to California so they could finally live in the same place — and leave the tearful airport goodbyes behind them.

Now, two years after they first met, Taylor and Dylan will be sealed in the Paris Temple, in the city where their story began. They look forward to celebrating their love and beginning eternity together in the city of love.
