Our Wedding

Sometimes, life’s sweetest moments happen when you least expect them. Collins Morley and Madison Gerritzen met in September 2022, but their lives had been quietly overlapping long before that. Collins, originally from Orange Park, FL, and Madison, from Dallas, TX, both found their way to Boynton Beach, FL — Collins in 2015, Madison in 2020. For nearly two years, they lived just miles apart, visiting the same places, unknowingly sharing the same corner of the world. When they finally connected, it felt like coming home. Long conversations flowed easily — about college football, favorite meals, childhood memories, and dreams for the future. Despite coming from different places, their hearts and values aligned perfectly. Their first date was a day filled with simple joys: swimming at the beach, wandering local shops, cruising in Madison’s Jeep, and ending with dinner at Park Tavern in Delray Beach. Time seemed to slip away, and neither wanted the day to end. On Halloween, October 31, 2022, Collins asked Madison to be his girlfriend, marking the beginning of a deep and meaningful journey together. On December 14, 2024, Collins brought Madison back to the same exact spot where they shared their first date to propose. Since then, their love has blossomed through shared travels, family celebrations, and building a faith community at Christ Fellowship Church in Boynton Beach. Collins and Madison look forward to continuing this journey, growing in love, faith, and friendship as they step into their future together. They are beyond excited to celebrate their wedding at The Pelican Club in Jupiter, Florida — a stunning place that perfectly reflects their love for the coast and each other. Most of all, they can’t wait to spend this special time surrounded by their closest friends and family.
