Dylan and Alli met on April 29th, 2023, at a bar called Fozzy's in Loves Park, IL. They talked, laughed, joked around, and played a couple rounds of darts to help break the ice of getting to know each other. After that night, they really liked each other, so they exchanged contact information and decided to go on a first date together just a few days later.

In April 2024, Dylan had to move away from Illinois to Michigan because of his new orders from the military, so they had to adjust to the challenges and lifestyle of being in a long-distance relationship that neither of them wanted to experience.

Dylan proposed to Alli on April 27, 2025, off a boat dock looking over Lake St. Clair in New Baltimore, Michigan and she said YES!! We can't wait to celebrate with all our family and friends and look forward to our future together!
