Back in November of 2022, Alison and Brendan were both looking for love-keeping expectations low after some terrible first dates. After a month of trying to coordinate a date, they finally met up at Griffin Claw in Birmingham, where of course Brendan showed up late and ordered a fruity drink. He shared his love for vacations (specifically cruises-(have you seen our basement cruise port?!)) sports, and dogs, and Alison knew he was special that moment on. She even texted her best friends saying she knew he was a keeper. They were thrilled considering she had been a professional third wheeler for quite some time. Now here we are, many vacations, sporting events, and a dog later. Swiped right into love!
