Oh me… Where do I even begin? I guess I could come on here and say I’ve been crazy busy and haven’t had time to blog,and blah, blah, blah, which would be totally true. But to be honest, I just really wanted to take the time to enjoy being married, my new family, our new home, and really just LIFE that I kind of checked out on life for a little while. It’s been the best summer of my life, but now school is back in session which means I have the time to devote to my blog again! I’ve missed you guys! If you follow me on Instagram, by now you’ve seen pictures from our wedding but I figured I would share a few (ok.. maybe a lot) more because it truly was the most perfect day ever! I’ve always wanted to have a surprise wedding, and with the help of the most amazing planner, Ivy Robinson, and swearing my family to secrecy, we almost pulled it off. To be honest, I think most people knew what was happening, but I just wanted the day to be about the love God has brought together and not seating charts, presents, and bridesmaids. Can you believe it was so romantic two couples got engaged?! I have to give our Pastor, David Chadwick from Forest Hill Church all the credit on that one though. I think everyone was crying after the beautiful words he gave. I wanted all of our family and friends to show up wearing whatever they wanted and ready to have a good time at an “engagement party”. It was everything and more that I ever dreamed of and I have a million people to thank for making this the most special day of my life. But as a blog reader, I know you guys are here to see pictures so here ya go!

Emily I am so glad you finally found the happiness you had been searching for. You are beautiful inside and out and Tyler is one lucky dude but I’m sure he knows that already. Little Ricki looked as happy as you and I’m so glad that you allowed us to see the beginning of your journey with Tyler and share this joyous occasion with us. I send a toast to you for many years of wedded bliss and all the peace, love and happiness that you deserve. May the lord bless you and guide you throughout this journey.
Emily,
After watching you on the Bachelorette, I am so overwhelmed with the woman you have become. I am so overjoyed that you are living such a profound and beautiful life. And how you are not afraid to proclaim your beliefs to the world. I recently got married as well, and it was also the most magical day of my life. It was a pleasure to watch a glimpse of your special day, and be reminded of the vows I also made only two months ago. May your marriage be as beautiful as your wedding day. And thank you for sharing such a personal day with us.
God Bless.
Emily,
Thank you so much for sharing this part of your special day. You have a tender and generous heart to be so open with your readers. Your story is a true testimony to how great God’s love is for us all.
May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family!
Congratulations!!!

Your video and the pictures definitely brought tears. Everything- every detail- was so incredibly beautiful. You were a gorgeous bride, but what I loved most was seeing your sincerity and getting little glimpses into your heart. From one sister in Christ to another- I was encouraged by watching your video and how God has worked in your life and you have placed him at the center of your marriage. I watched you on the bachelor and bachelorette- but this short wedding video is hands down my favorite. I’m so glad you finally met and married the man God had for you. Many blessings and best wishes to you, Tyler, and Ricki! I will say a prayer for you as you begin this journey of marriage! Oh and yes- thanks for coming back on the blog! and for the jewelry sale! I just made a few purchases last night! Can’t wait to see more items- I hope you keep designing jewelry. I get so many compliments every time I wear your pieces. All the best!!! Natalie

AMAZING!! BAD idea to watch your video at work. It was absolutely beautiful, made me cry!! (Maybe even harder than Tyler was crying!!) I have watched your journey every step of the way and I cannot be happier for you. God bless you and your family. Can’t wait to see your next post. Welcome back.
xoxo
Welcome back and congrats Ms oh I mean Mrs. Emily!!! Your Wedding was simply beautiful, I’m so happy for you Tyler and Ms Ricki and pray you have a strong, wonderful everlasting marriage. As I’ve said before you are one of the very few “celebrities” I look up to as an inspiration and feel like I root for. Can’t wait for more blog post and updates from you. May God bless your new family. PEACE+LOVE (:
WOW! What a beautiful day! Loved watching your wedding video, filled with so much joy and love and so Christ centered! Amazing, thank you for sharing your day with us!
Just beautiful, Emily! I am so happy for you. I keep praying that the Lord will send me the right man at the right time…I just pray to have a husband as close to Christ as Tyler is and a relationship where HE is the center. I have yet to meet any man that truly wants that. In the beginning, they say they want that…but it just doesn’t happen. I wish you a lifetime of happiness and I am so glad your blog is back!
Emily!
Congratulations! You are such a generous person to share your amazing day with us! God has truly blessed you abundantly and it is clear that you are very thankful! Your journey is a true testimony of God’s great love of each of us!
May God continue to bless your beautiful family!

I loved this video so much, it put me to tears. I too am a Christian girl and I am so moved by your vows and the sweet words mentioned. I am happy you have shared such a love with Tyler and even more importantly centered your relationship around God. Ricky is so lucky to have such beautiful loving parents. Hats off to the planners of your wedding and the videographer. It was immaculate.
Congratulations to both you & Tyler! Your wedding was beautiful. I couldnt help, but shed a tear watching your vows and having your faith play a big part in it. It was very nice to see that. Thanks again, for showing us your perfect day! Wish you, Tyler and Ricki all the best as you start your new journey. P.s. I’m happy to see you back blogging and can’t wait for more!
Emily.. I am so happy you have found the one God made just for you. The love you two share is so obvious when you look at each other. Thank you for sharing with us. Cherish everyday as a family.

Wow! Beautiful. I cried while watching your video.
Truly the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen. Thank you for being who you are and sharing your very personal video! God must be just beaming that someone who has such a public following is sharing his message with the world. Lives will be changed because of this. God bless your family and your life together! Xoxo
Huge congratulations – a cord of three strands is not easily broken. 🙂 I love the focus on God at your ceremony. Congratulations to you, Tyler, and Ricki!
This is truly the most perfect wedding video I have ever seen. I pray that my wedding glorifies the Lord as much as yours did. After watching your journey on The Bachelorette, I am so glad you found your happy ending.

Simply gorgeous!! You guys are inspiration that waiting on God is Worth it
Oh Emily! My many congratulations on yours and Tyler’s wedding! It absolutely warms my heart to see Rick and Linda there, to see you grow after losing Ricky to this makes me smile. So here are my best wishes to you, Tyler and Ricki as you three start your new life together. May God bless you all.
Emily, you are beautiful inside and out. You are my role model, fashion idol, and someone who truly inspires me. This video touched me so much and gave me tears in my eyes. I kept thinking, “she found a good one!” When a guy cries for you like that, you know he’s a keeper! The whole day looked insanely beautiful. Your dress was stunning, can’t forget your lovely bracelet stacking, and the fireworks at the end were top notch. You are the prettiest person on the planet! That was cute when Tyler mouthed I Love You to Ricki. I loved the importance to Jesus Christ this video and your day had. Bless your family, Emily! You are truly one of a kind!
So much love for you! It is such a blessing to witness people that are truly in love! Thank you for sharing something so personal and dear <3
Just wanted to share how much of a inspiration you & your marriage are to me. Aside from your incredible beauty & fashion sense, I’m even more inspired by your faith, class, & how you lead your life as a daughter, mother, and now wife. I’m 22 and still continue to think of you as the best role model. Congratulations to you & Tyler! There’s no one more deserving & I’m so glad Jesus brought you two together. I hope he does the same for me some day. Best wishes & God bless.
Way to make somebody just bawl. Praying the best for you in your life. I’m glad you are back blogging, I’ve missed your updates.

Love love loved this post!! Your wedding video is amazing & totally brought me to tears! Congratulations!!!! Keep the blog posts coming, love reading!
Congratulations!! Hearing about your surprise wedding earlier this year was wonderful and to finally see some more pictures of your day is so sweet! You and Ricki looked gorgeous and Tyler too! You all look wonderful and I couldn’t be happier for you all. We don’t know each other, but I’m so happy and I wish you the best as you start a new chapter in your life. Many, many, many happy years together!

Great post Emily! Watching your wedding video brought tears to my eyes. Im so glad youve found love.
Congratulations to the 3 of you.May God bless you all with joy, happiness, and love, for a lifetime.Emily you looked absolutely radiant and gorgeous.Ricki looked like a little princess.Tyler looked very handsome and unafraid to reveal his true love for you and his promise for a home centered around our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.It brought tears to my eyes, and I had to smile, when your Pastor extended the invitation to anyone there who might be lost.It reminded me of my wedding 38 years ago, when our Pastor did the very same thing.I only would give you one word of advice, when there’s a difference of opinions, remember, when King Jesus is on the throne of your heart, there isn’t room for anyone else.God bless you all, linda
Beautiful. I cried watching this. So incredibly happy for you. These photos are priceless. The one of you and Rikki in black and white in front of the corn field. Oh my…so so precious. I just started reading Francis Chan’s latest book…on marriage called “You and Me Forever”. So amazing if you and Tyler haven’t started reading it already. You guys would love it. Congratulations you three and probably a few more to come 😉
I am so happy for you! Lots of love and may you live happily ever after!
I was in tears watching the wedding video! It was so sweet and focused on the important part of getting married. It was gorgeous yet it focus on what really matters! All the best,
Xx

What a beautiful wedding so happy for you, thank you for sharing with us!
Congratulations Emily ! I am watching your video in Thailand now.
You are a truly amazing woman with grace, beauty, brain, strength and wisdom. It is incredible how you have been through and now here where you are today. Your optimistic and strength will be a great role model to your children and people around you. Your story inspire so many people in the world who have been your fans and following you.
You have such a beautiful full family. Ricki will look up to you and live a beautiful life as yours. I am sure your husband will cherish you forever.
God bless you and your family. Congratulations again.
I’m so happy your back blogging, and i LOVED the post! Congratulations on your wedding and the marriage to grow from here on. I recently got engaged, and would absolutley love if you could share some weddingplanning tips and tricks, maybe some of the things you and your husband both where most pleased by with your wedding? My wish of blogposts to come 😉 Love from Sweden
Dear Emily ,
WOW. What an inspiration you are. Like most people I first saw you on the Bachelorette , at first I was drawn to your beauty and bubbly personality but what made me keep watching the show was the way you handled yourself , your daughter and integrity. You are a true lady. A term that has been lost to the cheap sensations and scandals of the modern society , but you truly embody it heart and soul. This wedding video has almost made me cry several times but it has also given me an infinite amount of hope. Hope that one day God will also bless me with such a beautiful day and I’m not just talking about the aesthetics but the beauty of the love that was shared and the way in which it was shared. I love how unapologetic you are about the fact that you are born again. It is so incredibly inspiring and refreshing. Thank you for being a stunning rolemodel for young adults like me and women in general. You remind me of the Proverbs 31 woman ; ” She is clothed in strength and dignity , and she laughs without fear of the future.” Thank you for being who you are and everything that God has made you to be , you inspire me so much. I pray and wish you and your gorgeous family love , blessing , favour and prosperity.
Lots of Love
xoxo
Hi Emily! Just wanted to say that you have been a true inspiration for me a long time now. I’m from Finland and I have read your blog since the day you started. I love your style but aside from that I love the way you remember your readers. The video was amazing, I got so emotional watching it. I’m so happy for you, Tyler and little Ricki! You make a gorgeous family and I wish you nothing but the best:)
I am so happy for the three of you, you look very happy!
Emily this was the most amazing beautiful wedding i have ever seen!! I cried the whole time, Its so amazing to see such two loving people coming together and making a family for Rikki. God bless you!! wishing you a lifetime of happiness and love!!
Emily, With God happy endings are always the best in His hands. Your video brought happy tears…..loved you and your daughter on your journey on television. Your story touched our hearts and now to see you happy is wonderful. Thank you for sharing and being a great witness for the Lord.
Thank you for sharing your precious day with all of us. It was magical watching your wedding while you glorify God throughout the process. You were an absolutely beautiful bride! I know it was yours and Tyler’s day but it was so special how you made it Ricki’s day too! I love how you and Ricki’s dresses were made out of the same fabric…so sweet. May God bless you , Tyler and Ricki in your new life together.
What a beautiful way to start a life together. As a Christian for a long time, I was brought to tears by the beauty of your profession of faith in our Lord during your wedding ceremony. May He continue to bless and hold your sweet family!
Thank you so much for sharing! My 1st wedding anniversary is coming up this Sunday and watching your video just brought me back to my own day…and yes, I cried 🙂
just beautiful…….congrats!
This is just absolutely beautiful! Your’s and Tyler’s love for the Lord is so evident and the way the Gospel was portrayed during your ceremony was amazing! God is so faithful and your relationship is such a testimony to that! Thank you for not being afraid to share your love for our God!
What an absolutely beautiful video. You can feel the love and blessings surrounding the day, and I pray that your growing family sees many more. Sending y’all Light and Love
I only watched you on the Bachelorette show and having seen your wedding made me teary eyed. The best moment is when you know that your love for each other is focused on God, honoring Him first and foremost. Congratulations for you both and Rickie….! May God bless you always.
I loved your video. It was like a dream come true. You are so beautiful and classy and putting God first in your marriage is the ultimate blessing! You two give little girls something to look forward to that it can happen! That dreams can come true… Everything was perfect right down to the last details and Rickie was just beautiful…..I LOVED IT! Congratulations to all three of you with God’s Blessings!!!!!!!!! <3
I’ve followed your story from the start Emily and I’m so glad you finally found your happy ending with Tyler. Sending you, Tyler and your daughter love & light from Australia xo
So you didn’t forget about your blog readers? Lol! Just teasing. Of course it makes perfect sense that you wanted to absorb all that has happened and just live in your new life for a while and try it on for size before you share it with everyone else. Congratulations to you and your new husband and to Ricky too. You have a new little family now. Your pictures are lovely! So wonderful and God bless you!
Emily,
Congrats on such a perfect celebration of your love for eachother. Wishing you many more years filled with endless love and everlasting joy!
Love,
Filsan
I cried through that whole video! What a beautiful video that shows your true love for each other! So happy that you found your happily ever after!!
Just wanted to say what a beautiful wedding video. I love how you put our Lord Jesus first. What a beautiful family you have. You are all so blessed!
This is so beautiful! Congratulations! The video made me cry for sure, but my heart really melted when Tyler mouthed “I love you” to Ricki during the ceremony! How sweet!
Emily, this was absolutely the most beautiful wedding! You look so very happy and I am so glad to see it. I watched you on the Bachelorette and was always so impressed with what a genuine, sweet person you were. You were always mindful and considerate of all the guys feelings. It is wonderful to see you and Tyler and how happy you both seem. I am praying that God will bless you both (and the three of you as a family) as you grow together and grow old together. You and Tyler make a Beautiful Couple and Rickie is precious! Keep Jesus at the center of your family and your eyes on Him. Wishing much happiness and joy to your new life together.
Wow, that video was beautiful! Tyler and Emily, my wife Patty and I wish all of God’s best in the coming years as you journey together as husband and wife!! Blessing! Jimmy and Patty Wade
I’m absolutely thrilled for you, and so happy that you have given us a sneak into your day. I’m not sure why I put off watching the movie, but it was stunning and I’m so glad you shared it with us. You look beyond happy, and as usual, flawless in every way.
WOW!!! Absolutely Beautiful!!! Everything was PERFECT!!!! Happily Ever After, Congratulations!!!
So incredibly beautiful & moving. Congratulations! Finally happily ever after 🙂

The video is absolutely beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your special day. Congratulations!!
I have loved from the day you showed up on The Bachelor. There was always something different about you. So strange how you want happiness for someone you don’t even know so badly. Looks like you finally got what you deserve! Awesome video. What a gorgeous day for what seem to be 2 very amazing and happy people. Your faith is inspiring and just shows all the more why you are so special. With Jesus at the center of your marriage- you can’t go wrong!
What a beautiful wedding that gave so much glory to God! There was so much love in the day. Love for God, love for each other and love for Ricky. Congratulations and my God bless your covenant formed in Him.

Emily, who sang the song that is played in your wedding video that you posted that says the words…When I’m With You. I love that song but I can’t seem to figure out who sings it. I have watched you on both bachelorette shows and loved you. I am thrilled that you have found the right person to share you life with. Congratulations!!!
Thank you for sharing your day with us – it looked like such a wonderful celebration! You are truly beautiful inside and out – that much is clear!
No words, just LOVE. Thanks for sharing, truly magical!
Emily,
I have had such a girl crush on you since I first saw you on the Bachelor! A fellow Charlotte girl, how could I not be a fan? More importantly, your Christ-centered attitude and actions made me respect you throughout your seasons on tv. Isn’t God so good to us? He knew your plan the entire time and brought you and Tyler together, for His perfect purpose. I loved your photos & video, they made me tear up it was so special.
Wishing you, your groom and your precious daughter a lifetime of happiness! xo
I have to admit that your wedding was one of the most special I have ever attended. Not only for the beauty of witnessing your’s and Tyler’s vows, but the fact that his cousin, Frank, proposed to me on your reception dance floor. We were married last Saturday. I don’t think anyone got engaged at our wedding, too bad we couldn’t keep the circle going, but I thought you would enjoy learning that witnessing your marriage began another. Blessings!
So lovely and honoring in every way! What a beautiful ceremony focused on the creator of all things! HUGE CONGRATS! Thanks for sharing:)
First of all…..Congrats!!! I am so happy for you. Always keep Christ first in your life and the center of your marriage.
Second…..That video — AMAZING!!! Oh my gosh….it brought tears to my eyes and the preacher’s words gave me chills. What an awesome ceremony. I hope someone will see that video and come to know God. How awesome that would be.
Thanks so much for sharing your special day with us. :)’
Emily, you look so beautiful! I am so happy for you to finally get your happy ending, you and your daughter both deserve it! I was also encouraged after watching your wedding video (which made me cry) about your relationship with God. So refreshing to hear! Thank you for sharing your special day!
What a beautiful day. So happy for y’all. Glad you were able to find your happy beginning. Lots of love from a fellow North Carolinian!! Be blessed 🙂

As a makeup artist I should know better than to watch an Emiky Maynard Wedding video right after finishing my makeup. I bawled my eyes out in joy of you finding happiness and Jesus in your heart. God bless you, your marriage, and the life ahead of you 3.
