A literal fairytale come true! The two tied the knot in a coach house in Kentucky with their two children this past October in the dreamiest au natural nuptials - with pops of peach and orange tones for a touch of autumnal warmth - just like the warmth of their everlasting love.

I, Mickey, am from Los Angeles, California, and Bryson is from Albany, Kentucky. I was visiting my birth siblings (I was adopted when I was born), in Albany, KY, and my brother decided to take us on a mudding trip, and I thought it was just going to be with the few friends of his that I already met. Once we got to the location, I saw Bryson, in all of his southern boy glory, boots and all. Everything fell into place after that. I had to go back to California but could not think about having a life without Bryson in it, so two weeks later I packed up all of my things and moved to Kentucky to be with him.
