In the age of digital romance, a serendipitous encounter on Hinge changed everything. Ali, encouraged by her closest friends during a cozy wine night, took the plunge into the world of dating apps.

As fate would have it, Liam's profile appeared, catching Ali's eye instantly. In one of his photos Liam was standing with his mom after a lacrosse game. It was in that photo that a familiar Boise State Lacrosse jersey sparked intrigue. Ali's matron of honor, Kendall, recognized the lacrosse jersey and figured out that Liam had played lacrosse with her husband at BSU. With a glowing review from his previous teammate/one of Ali's best friends, Ali took the leap and messaged Liam!

Their initial conversation blossomed into weeks of heartfelt exchanges, despite being separated by holiday travels. Each moment spent texting felt like a glimpse into something special, foreshadowing the depth of connection they would soon discover.

Their first date at The Roosevelt in Meridian, Idaho, set the stage for what was to come. Hours flew by in laughter and easy conversation, leaving them both with an unshakeable feeling of their instant connection. From that moment on, it was clear they had found something extraordinary in each other.

Their shared adventures have been nothing short of magical. From golf lessons to cheering on lacrosse teams, from cozy nights with their cats to exploring the world together, they've woven a tapestry of cherished memories.

In December 2023, against the picturesque backdrop of McCall, Idaho, Liam orchestrated a proposal as unforgettable as their love story. With snow all around them, he dropped to one knee, and of course, Ali said "YES!", beginning the next chapter of their journey together.

Ali and Liam have found their home in each other, and as they eagerly await their wedding day, they are filled with gratitude for the love and support that surrounds them. They cannot wait to celebrate their love with cherished family and friends, marking the beginning of a lifetime of happiness together.
