The bride and groom met about thirty years ago when Tyrone was in Chicago visiting family. When they met, they hit it off but was not able to keep a long-distance relationship going in the 90’s. Fast forward to Father’s Day weekend 2020 Tyrone came to Chicago again to visit family and reached out to Carisa. They picked up where they left off but this time, they kept the long-distance relationship going virtually for a few months until Tyrone moved to Chicago in November 2020. He proposed January 8, 2021, Carisa said “YES” and the rest is history!
