WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT | Patrick and Shelly Maynard of Lynchburg, Tennessee, together with Chris and Becky Byrom of Lynchburg, Tennessee, recently announce the forthcoming marriage of their children, Isaiah Skylar Ralston and Karlee DeAnn Byrom.

The couple will exchange vows in February 2026 during a ceremony in Winchester.

Isaiah and Karlee first met as children and reconnected years later through their church, Brownington Church of the Nazarene, where friendship soon turned into something deeper. Their relationship, built on faith, laughter, and mutual respect, has continued to grow and strengthen over the years.

Isaiah is employed as an HVAC-R Technician with Service Tech in Decherd, where he is known for his reliability and dedication to his craft. Karlee assists her mother in operating Tanyard Tots Daycare in Lynchburg, where her kind heart and nurturing spirit shine in her daily work with children.

Following the ceremony, a reception for family and friends will be held to celebrate their union. The couple will then enjoy a honeymoon before returning home to Lynchburg, where they will begin their life together as husband and wife. •
