Tyler and Kelli met at a wedding in Utah in October of 2019. Tyler's cousin Dylan and Kelli's childhood friend Jesse were getting married. Upon seeing Tyler, Kelli knew right away that she had to make a move before the end of the wedding; there was no way she would let him get away without at least a conversation. Kelli's infamous bold behavior lead her to switch Tyler's place card at the reception table and they spent the evening sitting and talking next to each other. They both felt the spark and continued to talk after Kelli went back to Georgia. When they made their relationship official in April 2020, things really took off and their love developed quickly! Tyler proposed in October 2020, almost exactly a year after they met, on top of Arabia Mountain at sunrise here in Georgia.
