It started over a social dating app in July, 2014. After getting to know each other online over the course of several months due to distance, Alfredo and John Frank met in November, 2014. They decided to take their relationship to the next level and became boyfriends in February 2015. Despite the challenge of the long distance relationship, John Frank made the decision to move to Austin, Texas to be with Alfredo in October, 2015. Since then, the two have taken in three furbabies, made new friends, and bought a new home.
It was the Spring of 2019 when Alfredo decided to pop the question to John Frank. It happened during John Frank's birthday party with close friends. Alfredo presented John Frank with a pair of diamond earrings to show his love and commitment to their future.
Due to the worldwide pandemic which began in the Spring of 2020, Alfredo and John Frank had to reschedule their ceremony and reception to 2021 for their safety, as well as their guests.
