Allison and Thomas’s story began with one admittedly bad pickup line about citrus fruit. Somehow, it worked—and over the years, that moment grew into a love rooted in laughter, friendship, and a shared appreciation for life’s simple joys. What started as a conversation turned into more than six years of love, countless memories, and a growing collection of fruit trees gifted to one another on anniversaries along the way.

They’ve built a life full of care, patience, and partnership, and look forward to continuing to grow together in the years ahead. On a quiet night at home, with only their son Owen as a witness, Thomas proposed—perfectly fitting for a love that has always been about home, family, and choosing each other every day.
