Taylor and Brett were both born in Whitehorse, Yukon to Wendy & Graham (Buzz) Burgess, and Claire & Terry Hills. They both attended both elementary & high school in Whitehorse, crossing paths long before they ever imagined they'd end up building a life together. They knew of each other back in elementary school, and by high school they shared mutual friends.. and a few secret crushes.

Life carried them in different directions after graduation. They both travelled, lived a little, and eventually found themselves back home in the Yukon. Taylor had just finished nursing school, and Brett was working the camp life, coming back into town on his days off.

In January 2019, fate gave them a little nudge when they reconnected online and from that moment, everything clicked. They got together and never looked back.

It was after travelling to Hawaii for a family wedding and meeting most of Brett's family, where Taylor first thought that maybe this could be a "forever" thing (the awesome family was the seller), while Brett.. obviously knew right away.

Since then, life has been a beautiful rollercoaster. They survived COVID lockdowns together in a tiny space, navigated loss, welcomed their first baby, Carson, bought a home, and then were surprised with their second little love, Koa. Life has been busy, chaotic, sleep-deprived, and so full of joy. It has challenged them and tested them more than ever, which has only made them stronger, especially with the love and support from amazing family and friends.

On Christmas morning in 2022, in cozy pajamas with Carson on her lap, Brett asked Taylor to marry him. The simplest and most perfect moment.

Now, after years of growing, learning, and loving together, it finally feels like the right time to celebrate! They can't wait to gather with their favorite people in the world and begin this next chapter surrounded by all the love that brought them here.
