The Big Al and C-Rex Story

Our story first began in 2016 when Maddy Mak (now a bridesmaid) first introduced Conner and Ally. Conner was wrestling at Arizona State and Ally was playing soccer at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. From there they stayed in touch until New Years Eve 2021, when a spontaneous decision to spend the day together turned into a lifetime of happiness.

After the New Year, Conner and Ally started their dating journey with distance. Ally began her 2 year nursing school journey in 2022 at Yavapai College in Prescott and Conner advancing his career at Redwood down in Scottsdale. With Ally tackling nursing school and Conner focused on work, they both knew it would be a challenge. Challenge accepted... and they both knew it would be worth it.

Ally graduated nursing school in December 2023. Come New Years in 2024, the decision was easy. After falling head over heels for each other, Conner and Ally moved to south Scottsdale together. This year they navigated through Ally's transition into her nursing career, finally living in the same city, adventured through hikes, countries and concerts.

2025 was the pinnacle year for Ally and Conner. It began with them moving into their first home together in North Scottsdale. Soon after, they ran their first marathon together. They spent the evening in Ojai, California where Ally said yes to the biggest question of both their lives. Shortly thereafter, they expanded their family with the addition of Odysseus "Blue" Small (Ody),their loving and very hyper red labrador retriever.

Why Bozeman? Ally and Conner have travelled all over the West Coast but fell in love with Bozeman during a 2024 trip for Conner's grandfathers 80th birthday. With a mountain fairy rustic twilight vibe in mind, Ally quickly set her sights. With our families and friends spanning from Arizona, Alaska, California, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Colorado and beyond, it made sense. Bozeman holds a special place in our hearts and there is nowhere we would rather celebrate the most important day of our lives.

The last 4 years together have been a wild ride. We know that the best is yet to come with marriage. We both cannot wait for our big day and to celebrate with every single one of you!
