Long story short, Christian and I met through a mutual friend while attending school at the University of South Florida!

In the Fall semester of 2018, I joined a sorority, Zeta Tau Alpha, and was given a "big", aka, Destiny, my maid of honor! Destiny was living in an apartment that year with 3 of her friends(one being Christian) which is how we were first introduced. Seven months after meeting for the first time, Christian reached out on Instagram and we started getting to know each other a bit more. Only days later, we went on our first date to a Rascal Flatts concert at the Mid Florida Credit Union Amphitheater in Tampa. After that day, we spent almost every single day continuing to get to know each other and learning about the things we both loved. We became inseparable really quick! On June 22, 2019, Christian asked me to be his girlfriend.

About two years later, I expressed to Christian that I wanted to take some pictures for us to display above the couch in our apartment. Surprisingly, he was up for it and we planned a day to go to Philippe Park in Safety Harbor with Destiny(full circle moment) so she could take some pictures for our apartment(or so I thought). In the middle of it all, Christian popped the question with my dream ring in hand!!

We are so excited to see what the rest of our story will look like and we hope it includes every single one of you!

Love, Ally
