A Timeless Love at The Glade: A Tallahassee Wedding Venue
Kailee & Dylan’s Journey
There is something profoundly special about finding your "other half"—the person who mirrors your soul so closely that friends joke you’re actually the same person. For Kailee and Dylan, that wasn’t just a joke; it was the start of a beautiful, inseparable life together.
The "Same Person" Spark
Shortly after college, a mutual friend played matchmaker with a bold claim: she had found someone who was exactly like Kailee. She wasn't exaggerating. From their shared alma mater (Go Noles!) to their introverted natures, the two clicked instantly. They’ve been by each other's side ever since.
A Proposal with a Furry Twist
The proposal took place at their favorite local trail, a spot known for its stunning views where they often walk their dog, Tally. However, the day almost went differently! Right before they left, Tally had a little "accident" in the house. Dylan, clutching the ring and feeling the nerves, was terrified his carefully laid plans were about to be derailed by a cleaning session and a "time-out" for the pup.
Luckily, they decided the fresh air was a better idea. At one of their favorite overlooks, Dylan asked Kailee to spend forever with him. It was perfectly personal, slightly chaotic, and completely them.
The Big Day: Classic & Timeless
Kailee and Dylan are planning a wedding that reflects their sophisticated yet understated style.
Theme: Classic black and white—a timeless aesthetic that will never go out of style.
The Look: Kailee will be wearing a stunning Martina Liana gown. In a stroke of savvy wedding planning, she found her dream dress on Stillwhite, snagging her exact size and style for 60% off with no alterations needed!
Heartfelt Moments: As private people, they are most looking forward to their first look and private vows. These quiet moments allow them to truly connect before the celebration begins.
Why They Chose The Glade
For Kailee and Dylan, picking a venue was about more than just the "stunning" views—it was about the people. After their first call with Dan and Christy (the owners), they knew they were in good hands.
"Dan and Christy have been a blessing. They are so kind and helpful with recommendations... we just knew it was meant to be."
What sets The Glade apart?

All-Inclusive Pricing: No "BS upcharges." Everything from decor and lighting to the ceremony space is included, making the logistics straightforward and stress-free.
Advice for Future Couples
If Kailee could give one piece of advice, it’s this: Plan the small details early. "Plan everything as early as possible so you're not scrambling like us to finalize details we could have done 2-3 months ago when things felt chill."
