Alyssa and Andrew met through a mutual friend at Maggie's Waterfront Cafe on December 26, 2019. They immediately hit it off that night talking about their love of going to the movies and trips to North Wildwood in the summer. Alyssa also relentlessly made fun of Andrew's best friend, Timmy's, high white knee socks. That was probably the moment Andrew knew she was the one. Their shared love of the shore made Andrew's decision of where to propose pretty easy. He proposed at sunrise on the morning of August 31st on the seawall and then surprised Alyssa with an engagement party with all of their friends and families at Tacos & Tequila.
