Alyssa and William's story started back in 2022 at their church's young adults group. Neither one of them were looking for love but rather focusing on their relationship with the Lord and building friendships. Over the course of a couple years, Alyssa graduating college, and William relocating to Ohio, they grew to become the closest of friends. As their connection grew through the distance, they realized that God had brought them together for a reason. Although they were both initally too shy to risk ruining a perfect friendship, they took a leap of faith and William asked Alyssa out. After a year of long distance drives, many FaceTimes/ phone calls, and longing to be closer to eachother, they knew that they were meant to be together. William proposed to Alyssa in October 2024 at Double J ranch on a scenic horseback ride (Alyssa's favorite hobby). Within a month of gettting engaged, Will was able to move back to Michigan where they get to start the rest of their lives.
