We met in our hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina through mutual friends and began dating in 2012 while in college. In 2014, we moved in together and adopted our dog, Pepper. Although we made so many wonderful memories living in downtown Raleigh, our journey continued with our big move to Austin, Texas in late 2018 - a place we visited often and fell in love with. On Christmas night 2022, Tucker proposed to Marissa after flying home from a visit to Raleigh. Since then we've grown our roots in Austin, buying our first home in September 2023! We can wait to cap off this year celebrating our love and how far we've come with our closest family and friends.
