Taylor’s friend told her she would find Nik cute, and after setting up a gathering at Yeehaw Brewing, it was confirmed—she did. The attraction was mutual, and they became inseparable.
In 2020, the couple started a complete renovation of Nik’s childhood home. One evening, dropping by to check the progress, he told her there was a problem she needed to see, and she entered the house to find string lights, flowers, Champagne, and her future husband on one knee.
The wedding took place at Seabrook Island Club, and spirits weren’t dampened even as weather forced the event to move from the Ocean Terrace to the indoor dance floor. Her cousin Rev. Andy Chambers performed the ceremony, and she wore an Anne Barge gown. Nik’s ring was left to him by his grandfather, who had accidentally dropped it into the Mediterranean Sea while he was a captain in the U.S. Navy. Fortunately, it was recovered by divers.
Taylor, a stylist at Greenville Hair Bar, and Nik, an account manager, recently moved into their renovated home near Augusta Road.
