How We Met

Alyssa and Patrick met the millennial way...on the internet, through a dating app called Hinge. And a huge coincidence was discovered that they work at the same hospital. Patrick and Alyssa messaged for several weeks when finally, Alyssa asked Patrick to meet in person for their very first date (insert Blink-182 lyrics). Their first date was on August 2, 2020, at Northen Soul in Hoboken, NJ on one of the hottest days of summer. Later that night, Patrick texted Alyssa to make a second date. In the midst of the pandemic, only outdoor dining was an option, and it was set to storm for their 2nd date. So, Patrick asked Alyssa to come to his apartment for a pizza date and Alyssa alerted all her friends she was going. Right before Alyssa was heading over there, Patrick asked “weird question but do you have allergies to cats?”. Alyssa, not being a cat person, was skeptical of this cat but replied no and still went over. A month later Alyssa found herself offering to take in Kitty for Patrick and his friends as they moved out of their apartment. And the rest is history. On the 4th of July 2024, one of Alyssa’s favorite holidays, Patrick plotted to propose. While watching the fireworks at the park near their apartment, their friend Marissa went to setup for the proposal at our apartment (thank you!). If anyone has seen the pictures, you all know Alyssa had no idea this was going to happen. Alyssa walked into the apartment seeing candles lining the hallway leading to their outdoor patio with her future wedding song playing. Patrick got down on one knee and finally asked Alyssa to marry him. Alyssa obviously said YES! And the celebrations with friends and family began. Here they are today, more than 4 years later, counting down the days to officially say “I do”! Alyssa and Patrick cannot wait to celebrate with you on September 28th at Park Loft!

For all the days along the way
