Our story began August 2018 in Cortland, NY, when fate (and student housing) made us next-door neighbors. We were unknowingly living just a few feet away from the person who would one day become our forever. What started as casual hellos, quickly turned into Bills watching parties with lots of chicken wing dip, late-night conversations, shared laughs, and a beautiful friendship.

As time passed, our connection grew stronger, and our friendship blossomed into something more. We officially began dating October, 28th 2018, and soon after, life started to take us on new adventures.

The year 2020 threw us all an unexpected curveball—the COVID-19 pandemic. Like everyone else, we were faced with uncertainty and change, but we leaned on each other and grew even closer. The challenges of that time only deepened our bond and confirmed what we already knew: we were better together.

After (virtual) graduation, Tyson moved from his hometown of Wallkill, NY all the way to Buffalo, NY where he started building a life and creating space for the future we were beginning to dream about together.

In time, we took the next big step—moving in together in East Amherst, NY, where we now call home. It’s here, surrounded by love, laughter, and our fuzzy rabbit friends, that we’ve built a life filled with joy, support, lots of pizza and wings, and many, many games of Rummikub.

From next-door neighbors to partners through a pandemic and everything in between, our journey has been filled with devotion, resilience, and memories that will last a lifetime.

As we step into this exciting new chapter, we’re incredibly grateful for the family and friends who have supported us every step of the way. Your love, encouragement, and presence in our lives mean the world to us—and we’re so honored to celebrate this day with each of you. You are a special part of our story, and always will be. We can’t wait to celebrate our big day, and the next chapter of our story with you!
