Our Wedding

Our story begins in the hallways of Immaculata High School, where fate first brought us together in November of 2017. Mark was a senior, just months away from graduating, and Alyssa was a sophomore with her eyes set on the future. Despite being at different points in our high school journey, our connection was undeniable. We quickly became friends, sharing countless moments and laughter until that friendship naturally evolved into something more. On February 28, 2018, we took the leap and officially began dating, marking the start of a beautiful journey together. When Mark graduated from high school and headed off to Drexel University, we embraced our semi-long-distance relationship with unwavering confidence. Though the miles between us were sometimes challenging, we never doubted the strength of our love. We found joy in every reunion, from spontaneous road trips to planned weekend visits, always finding ways to shorten the distance. In those moments apart, we grew stronger, learning to cherish the time we had together and making the most of every second we could spend side by side. Alyssa's turn came to leave for college, and she joined Moravian University, starting another chapter in our adventure. Even with both of us busy pursuing our dreams, our bond only grew deeper. Our shared love for travel took us to some of our favorite places, but there was something special about our visits to Naples, Florida. Naples became our haven—a place to relax, dream about the future, and create some of our most treasured memories. In the summer of 2023, during one of our trips to Naples, Mark decided it was time to take the next step in our journey. On August 19th, with the sun setting over the Gulf of Mexico, Mark got down on one knee and asked Alyssa to be his forever. It was the easiest "yes" of our lives, surrounded by the love and warmth that had always defined our relationship. Now, as we look forward to our wedding day on November 7, 2025, at the beautiful Ryland Inn in Whitehouse Station, we couldn't be more excited that our dream is coming true. This venue has always felt like the perfect place for us to celebrate our love with the family and friends who have been part of our story from the beginning. We can't wait to share this next chapter with all of you, as we start the rest of our lives together.
