Once upon a time—okay, more like one random Tuesday night—Tristan and Cristy were both doing what all modern love stories start with: casually swiping on a dating app. That’s when Tristan stumbled upon her—the funniest, most beautiful woman he’d ever seen (and no, she didn’t even have a dog in her profile pic, which made it all the more impressive). He swiped right. They matched. And then... crickets. It took him a whole 24 hours to work up the courage to say hello (he swears he was playing it cool, but we know better). A few days of witty banter and shameless flirting later, Tristan picked up the phone and actually called Cristy—yes, like with his voice—and that was it. Game over. On their very first date, Cristy sent a text to her best friend (who, spoiler alert, is now her maid of honor) that simply said: "I found my husband." Little did she know how right she was—or how fast things would move. They joked about waiting a year before getting engaged. Cute, right? Except 10 months later, Tristan was down on one knee, ring in hand, and totally ignoring the calendar. Who knew someone could make a motel parking lot romantic? Through Cristy’s grad school hustle, Tristan wrapping up his time in the Navy, and all of life’s messy, magical moments in between, they’ve been each other’s rock, biggest fan, and daily dose of laughter. Now, after impatiently waiting (and maybe planning the honeymoon before the wedding), they are beyond excited to finally say “I do” and celebrate with all the people they love most. Let’s get this party started—aisle, here we come! 💍💃🍾
