Alea and Alyssa’s story started long before they ever spoke to one another. Though they went to high school together, their paths didn’t cross much back then. It wasn’t until 2023 that their connection truly began to blossom. In August of 2023, they started dating, and by October 29, 2023, they made it official.

On paper, Alea and Alyssa might seem like opposites. Alea’s calm, sweet demeanor is a perfect balance to Alyssa’s strong, determined personality. While their temperaments may differ, they share the same values, goals, and desires for the future—a love built on trust, respect, and unwavering support for each other.

From the moment they met, Alyssa’s son, Conley, took to Alea like family, and Alea couldn’t be more in love with him, too. Their bond grew quickly, and Alea became an integral part of their little family.

A year later, on October 29, 2024—exactly one year after they made things official—Alea surprised Alyssa with a proposal. Surrounded by love and with full hearts, they knew that this was just the beginning of their forever.

Now, as they prepare to marry in the spring, they’re both filled with gratitude and excitement for the future. As they often say, “When you know, you know.” And for them, it was always meant to be.
