It all started with a simple introduction from a family member—little did we know, that moment would change our lives forever. During the pandemic, while the world felt distant, we found connection. Alyssa lived in Michigan and Reed lived in Los Angeles, there our story began through messages and late-night conversations. As nurses, we both dedicated ourselves to caring for others, and eventually, our paths aligned in the best way possible—we each took a travel nursing contract in San Francisco. It was there, that our bond grew stronger. San Francisco became more than just a place we worked; it became the place where we fell in love, and there we decided to stay. We embraced adventure—exploring new places, traveling whenever we could, and spending time with our friends and family, and eventually adopting our fur baby, Cooper. Through every twist and turn, we’ve grown together, and now, we can’t wait to take this next step as husband and wife. We’re so excited to celebrate our love with all of you—our family and friends who have supported us along the way. Thank you for being part of our journey. We can’t wait to see you on our big day! <3 Alyssa & Reed
