We first met in 2012 in Ms. Dangerfield's Precalculus class at Stratford High School. The day after Jon graduated, he shot his shot by inviting Alyssa to his graduation party and we became inseparable for the summer. We parted ways when Jon went off to college - having spent a wonderful summer with each other but understanding that we were young and still had so much life to live.

Fast forward 7 years and we meet up for a lunch at Ms. Rose's Fine Food and it is as if time stood still between us. Immediately we fell back into the rhythm of laughing and being silly goofballs together and the rest... was a roller coaster. A cross country move, a stint in Greenville, SC, many jobs, adding an Opie girl and a Folly Lolly to the mix, the adventures of living with Paula and Joe, and we are finally here. We are finally able to celebrate with all of you on our special day. If you have played a big or small part in our love story, thank you. Thank you for always being in our hearts and a positive light in our lives. The experiences we have shared with you have led us here.

We love you.

Love,

Alyssa and Jon
