Stephanie and Tyler met in April of 2007. Stephanie was about to graduate from high school and Tyler was attending Modesto Junior College. Stephanie had applied to work at Grand Events, a local party store. Her first day on the job, she met Tyler. Tyler says the moment she walked in, he fell in love. He offered to give Stephanie a tour of the store and they began their friendship. Over the next seven years they became the best of friends. They were there for each other during all failed relationships, school and job changes. They had the best of memories going to the Giants game, dressing up together for Halloween, holidays, birthdays and going out when Stephanie finally turned 21. In 2014, Stephanie graduated from college and moved to Sacramento for a new job opportunity. Tyler and Stephanie decide to go their separate ways. During this time Tyler becomes a fire fighter and EMT. Stephanie started her graduate school journey while working for Center for Autism. In 2020, both are single and Stephanie buys her first home. Tyler decides one November night to reach out to Stephanie, congratulating her on buying her first home and suggested they meet up soon. They did on February 20,2021 and the rest is history.
