Tulsa, Oklahoma. 2023. Fate (and Hinge) brought Andrea and Tyler together. Tyler was finishing up his medical residency, and Andrea had recently returned to Tulsa after a few unforgettable years in New York City. From their very first conversation, something just felt right—like they had known each other for years.

Their connection quickly deepened, even as life gave them new challenges. When Tyler moved to Lubbock for his fellowship later that year, they embraced the challenge of long distance with love, patience, and a whole lot of miles on Southwest Airlines. Despite the distance, their bond only grew stronger, built on laughter, FaceTime dates, and shared dreams of the future.

Now, they’ve found their home in Fort Worth, where they share a cozy life with their sweet mini Aussie, PoohBear aka Doodles. Together, they’re building a life full of love, adventure, and gratitude.

As they take this next step, Andrea and Tyler want to thank their incredible families and friends for the endless love and support. Your encouragement, laughter, and guidance have shaped their journey—and they can’t wait to celebrate this beautiful moment with you.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and generous gift! Since we've already been sharing a home together, this gift isn't just helping us start our life—it’s helping us continue to build and grow it with love, intention, and a few fun upgrades!
