We met at the beginning of high school when I started at SPM. After being in classes together and having the same friend group, we started dating the last day of our Sophomore year. Mike asked me to be his girlfriend on a park bench at Holmes Field in Worcester, MA on June 15, 2012. We’ve loved growing up together and look forward to growing old together. - Alyssa
After almost 11 years, the proposal was much anticipated! I wanted to find the perfect ring and included our families in the process. Once I had the ring at our apartment, I wanted to stress the element of surprise for the ever-so-intuitive Alyssa. The ring was burning a hole through my pocket. I ultimately scrapped all plans and dropped down on a knee in our apartment the afternoon of 4/29. We celebrated with a rooftop champagne toast and special dinner. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with all of our most favorite people! - Mike
