We met on the ever so popular phone app., Tinder. Long story short, Ty paid $10.00 to increase his swipe capabilities and ALAS we matched! Long conversations about baseball, cows, and beer led to finally meeting in person. Our first date location was at a brewery, where we played a good 'ol game of checkers, and had many, many laughs. It felt as if we had known each other forever. Quickly, our first date led to a second and here we are today!

At the peak of the pandemic, while everyone was scattering and businesses were closing... we had to cancel our trip to Zion where Tyler originally had planned on popping the question. He had planned a whole engagement weekend, but unfortunately those plans fell through. One random Saturday, Tiffany begged Tyler to take her to her favorite beach spot (in Rancho Palos Verdes) to get out of the house and social distance. Since traffic had been at a minimum, Tyler agreed and away we went. Little did Tiffany know, Tyler had a special something in his pocket and he decided that this day felt right. While taking in the salty air and watching the waves hit the rocks so effortlessly, Tyler popped the question! Tiffany was shocked and of course said YES! Although the original plans fell through, it was perfectly us. Alone, on a BEAUTIFUL beach, with a BEAUTIFUL ring, being able to take everything in was just what we needed. It was perfect.
