How We Met
Joi and I had a working relationship for quite some time. He reached out to me to offer condolences for the loss of my stepdad Dave, and conversation was effortless and ongoing from then on. We confided in one another through some of our darkest days and leaned on each other for support and encouragement. We found out we had so many similarities and similar values. We like the same music, movies, and video games ;). I was able to witness Joi be the best dad to Josie and Bennett and fell for him harder with every interaction. I knew he was EXACTLY the man I wanted to spend forever with.
The Proposal
It was a Friday night and little did I know, Josie was laying the foundation for the big day. She had said, she thought we should dress up and take family pictures down by the river, in front of the historic Wilkommen sign. She had all the plans for a picnic. We woke up the next day, packed some sandwiches, a blanket and we were off to stick our toes in the water and collect seashells. As we were all walking out into the water, onto each of the stepping stones, I noticed the kids heading back to shore, then I looked down and saw Joi, on his knee, on a rock... in the water!! I was so nervous but so happy. It was better than I could have ever imagined. He asked if I would marry him and I said "Yes!" just the way I had envisioned it in my head 1000x before.

Things To Do
Bavarian Inn Lodge
We are so excited to have our wedding here! Most friends and family know that the Bavarian Inn Lodge is where Joi and I met, and where we currently work. Joi's worked for the company for 12 years, as an IT Manager and I am coming up on 8 years of doing Accounting for the company. There's so much to do at the Lodge! We're creeping up on the end of a huge waterpark expansion. By the time you come, we'll have the 3 story ropes course, climbing wall, mini bowling, laser tag, ice cream shop and so much more to offer! There's plenty of food options, bars, a whole floor filled with just arcade games. There's 3 pools: 1 adult only pool, 3 hot tubs, 2 family pools & 2 water slides. It's such an amazing place for kids and a really good time for adults like Joi and I, who are big kids at heart! Please don't sleep on this place! Bring your littles, celebrate with us and make it a weekend staycation! Mention Taylor Philipp wedding when booking - discount code #13O8J2
