Tyler and Alyssa’s story began back in college at Northern Arizona University, where a dating app first brought them together. Alyssa was a little hesitant to go on their first date, but Tyler’s persistence (and charm!) won her over. Their first date at Wildflower Bread Company, sharing food and laughs, was the start of something they couldn’t imagine living without—and they’ve been inseparable ever since. They cheered each other on as they earned their bachelor’s degrees, and after moving back home from college, they didn’t let distance get in the way. They made the hour-long trek every weekend to spend time together, with family and friends becoming part of their journey along the way. Tyler had been ready to pop the question for a while, and when Alyssa finally felt ready to take the next step, he didn’t waste a second. On March 22, 2025, during a dreamy picnic, Tyler asked Alyssa to be his forever—and she said yes with all her heart! Wedding planning has only made their love stronger, and now they can’t wait for what’s next: buying a home together and continuing to build a life full of love, laughter, and adventure—side by side, always.
