It was the day Colby had been dreaming about for two years. As Melanie walked down the aisle, he could hardly contain his emotions. He said remembering that moment, “I have never seen someone so beautiful in my entire life. I may or may not have cried! But it was the moment that God had prepared for us.”

A Growing Family and New Beginnings


Since their matrimony, Colby and Melanie have embraced the new life they are having together, inside and outside the sector. The newlyweds welcomed their first child, a male baby named Forrest, in March 2024, adding yet another layer of joy to this already beautiful story.
