Javiera and Tyler met at the wedding of Katie and Beez James in September 2016. Tyler was with his high school friends he hadn't seen in awhile, catching up, while Javiera was with her best friends (and now bridal party). The girls had noticed the boys across the room, so they decided to go say hi. As the high school friends and best friends began to chat, Javiera and Tyler stood to the side of the group, and struck up their own conversation. As the party began to dwindle, the friend groups decided to keep the party going and went back to the hotel room to hang out. Little did Tyler know, Javiera is a professional sleeper and immediately fell asleep on her bed, snoring at full volume. The following morning, Javiera woke to find a napkin on the night stand with Tyler's phone number and a note saying "I think you're really cool. We should hang out". Javiera proceeded to immediately lose the napkin (as well as her Rainbow sandals...she's still pretty bitter about that), and it would be 2 more weeks before they connected on Facebook. The couple haven't stopped talking since. Flash forward to Valentine's Day 2019. Javiera has never celebrated Valentine's Day, which Tyler knew, and this year was no different. They did not have any plans to celebrate, and they continued about their day as normal. Once Javiera finished teaching at her gym, she came home to find that Fiona (their dog) was wearing a new collar. As she proceeded to look at the ID tag, which was also different, she noticed it read "Will You Marry Me". Tyler was then on one knee, with a ring.
