Tenley and Taylor got engaged in January 2018 after two years of dating and wasted no time tying the knot. They enjoyed a wedding ceremony in April 2018 right outside of San Diego, CA.
Tenley met the love of her life through a mutual friend who attended the same church as Taylor.
After dating the product-line manager for a sandal company for only three weeks, Tenley gushed about how she was "going to marry him."
Tenley revealed she was dating a new guy -- and that she was "crazy" about him -- in early February 2016.

Tenley told Us Weekly of her "gorgeous" Taylor at the time, "His smile is just contagious. He's amazing, his heart is what got me. I had the best first date of my life with him and in that minute of just meeting him, I knew there was something really special about him."
Taylor was apparently unaware of Tenley's reality TV past when they began dating, which she saw as a big bonus.
"I think it's strange for him. He didn't know me from The Bachelor, which is really really cool," Tenley told Us at the time, adding that her man had no interest in watching old episodes of the ABC reality dating series.
Tenley initially vied for Jake Pavelka's heart on Season 14 of The Bachelor and finished as the runner-up.

After competing on Bachelor Pad's first season and experiencing traumatic heartbreak from her 2014 split with longtime boyfriend Kiptyn Locke, Tenley decided to put herself out there again and join the second-season cast of Bachelor in Paradise.
The city girl fell in love with former The Bachelorette suitor Joshua Albers in Paradise; however, she didn't think she could make a long-distance relationship work with him. Due to their different lifestyles, Tenley called it quits with the Idaho welder on the last day of filming.
"I'm not ashamed of anything I've ever done. I'm proud of myself and what I've learned and gained from it," Tenley previously told the magazine.
