Like many modern love story, ours began with a swipe — but this one actually worked out! We met on Hinge in early 2023 and quickly realized we had a few mutual friends who work with Kyle at ZooTampa (which made background checks much easier). Our first few dates were full of laughter, easy conversation, and that “oh no, this might actually be something real” kind of feeling. From there, life just clicked — from spontaneous adventures to quiet nights in, it’s been the perfect mix of wild and wonderful ever since. After a little over two years together, Kyle proposed on June 23rd, 2025, on the beach at Anna Maria Island. Between the ocean waves, a few happy tears, and a very sparkly “yes,” it was everything we could’ve hoped for. Now we can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter with all of you — surrounded by our friends, family.
