Our story started in high school, attending classes, walking through the halls, talking in the parking lot. Dylan finally built the courage to ask Alyssa on the first date, which started the beginning of our story!

I met Dylan first in biology class in 10th grade, we talked but then moved on, a year later in 11th grade we met again in the hallway where we reconnected and he invited me over. We went on our first date and have been together for over four years now. We have been on many trips and even adopted our two fur babies together. We are now expanding our life together and I cannot wait to go on many new adventures and one day expand our family. He is the love of my life and I cannot wait to call him my husband.

From the first day I met Alyssa I would get butterflies in my stomach. It did not matter if we were in class, talking by the cars after school or even just walking to class. I still remember our first date. I had to scramble to figure out how to cook on the grill for the first time to impress her! I spent hours making sure everything would be perfect! I still feel that drive to make her entire world perfect day in and day out. I love everything about her and she is the most caring and compassionate person I know. I could not be happier with the amazing woman I get to spend my life with. I look forward to all the love, laughs and goofiness that she will throw my way. Alyssa is my other half through and through.

Finally, after almost 4 years, Dylan got on his knee on their beach vacation and asked Alyssa to marry him!
