Sarah Elizabeth Eley and Ryan David Cox were united in loving marriage at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nev. on Aug. 28, 2010. Friends and family traveled from as far away as England to share in their wedding celebrations.

Sarah and Ryan went from being childhood playmates who followed different paths, to finding each other again by chance many years later as adults to continue a wonderful life together.

Sarah is the daughter of Bill and Linda Eley of Poulsbo and a 2001 graduate of North Kitsap High School. Ryan is the son of Roger and Loa Cox of Kingston and a 2000 graduate of Woodbury Central High School, Molville, Iowa. Pastor J. Doug Linderman officiated, Mark Eley and Rustin Cox were witnesses and Caden Cox was ring bearer.

After honeymooning in the Southwest, Sarah and Ryan made their first home in Port Ludlow.
