Marco and Alyssa first met in their high school pre-calculus class. When finding excuses to 'tutor' each other wasn't enough, they went on their first date June 6, 2014. Over the course of many years together, they have grown and changed, but have always found their greatest joy in loving each other.

In high school, Alyssa cheered loudly for Marco, #17, on the Weiser football field. They both were very involved in school, but found every excuse to spend time together.

After high school, they went on to attend college at the University of Idaho and joined the greek system, where they met some of their greatest friends and made some of their favorite memories. Marco studied architecture and beer, while Alyssa was on a quest to see how many majors she could test out. They had a wonderful time creating home for themselves in Moscow.

7 years of school and 4 degrees later, Marco and Alyssa moved to the Seattle area. They found success in their new careers of architecture and nursing. In 2023, after years of Alyssa begging Marco for a dog, they finally received their greatest joy, Nellie Bean. They currently enjoy being DILDOs (dual income little dog owners), exploring Washington, and of course, loving each other deeply.

They can't wait to celebrate the beginning of their forever with you on June 8th, 2024 in their hometown, 10 years after their first date.
