Ryan and Gracyn got married at the Ryland Inn on October 25, 2024.
“We met in high school but went to different colleges and have been together since we were 16,” says Gracyn.
“I knew it would be this year because we had talked about it but the timing caught me off guard,” says Gracyn.
“I think how surprised I was made it more special for me especially because I’m someone who likes to plan and know everything going on.”

Their celebration was inspired by rich fall tones, complemented by green bridesmaids’ dresses and vibrant autumn florals.
The Ryland Inn provided the ideal setting with its high-ceilinged ballroom and elegant chandeliers, offering the perfect backdrop for a day filled with laughter, love and dancing.
Ryan: “I really enjoyed all of the different dances and the special moments we had with our parents and each other. I also loved the getting ready pictures and preparation leading up to the ceremony.”
Gracyn: “I was so pleased with how smoothly everything went. Everyone had so much fun, which was great. I loved the time Ryan and I had after the ceremony to relax and really take in the night.”
“Working with Minted on our invitations was so easy and, as someone who is working without a planner, it was one less thing I had to worry about,” says Gracyn. “They matched exactly what we wanted and worked with us to get every detail right.”
The newlyweds kicked off the start of their marriage in Hawaii.
