Though Katie & Tyler should have met in college, they both "swiped right" on Coffee Meets Bagel in 2015. Their first date was at a sushi restaraunt downtown called Soko. At the time, Katie was allergic to everything and Tyler (sweetly) spent hours finding a place that was gluten-free, egg-free, whey-free (you get the point). The first thing Katie noticed about Tyler was that he was a 4 year old and a 40 year old all wrapped into one body. The other thing was that Tyler would always make sure he saved the last piece of sushi they were sharing; in case one was her favorite and she wanted the last bite. If anyone knows Tyler and food, this was just short of a miracle. They spent so many hours talking, Katie completely forgot about her parking meter outside and got a ticket. Time just flew by! On the first date, Tyler noticed how perceptive, fun-loving, and witty Katie was. She was someone with an open mind, yet wasn't afraid to challenge him. It also became apparent how determined she was (going to the gym right after their date, despite sharing a bottle of sake with Tyler). The conversation flowed so smoothly, almost as if they were meant to be together. Still, Tyler's nerves got the best of him, as he missed her lips after asking for a kiss goodnight (landing somewhere between her upper lip and nose). Despite the miss, Katie still agreed to a second date, this time at Chipotle (Tyler's favorite). That only confirmed what he already knew: Katie was someone he didn't want to let go. Five years later, Katie & Tyler are now engaged, and share a beautiful home they built together in Westminster Colorado (okay, not built, but they did pick out all the colors!). The two share passions for traveling, assembling puzzles, a good hike (followed by a good brewery), brunch, their cat, Charlie, and puppy, Abby. Well, they love them most of the time. Katie & Tyler are elated to celebrate this new adventure together, surrounded by much loved family and friends!
