It all began WAY back in 2011, when Trevor and Annalise had just started high school. Despite going to the same middle school, it took being two of just four freshmen in their biology class to officially become friends. In the summer of 2012, between their freshman and sophomore years, the guys’ and girls’ friend groups merged. The summer was filled with swimming in the Nelsons’ and Lindners’ pools, roasting s’mores at the Allans’, beach trips, and more. Annalise would come home and excitedly tell her mom all about her day, often including details about Trevor, who she swore was just a friend.

As summer turned to fall, a teenage love story began to develop—this time in chemistry class! Trevor asked Annalise to the homecoming dance, which they consider their official first date. This also meant that they both met the parents on the FIRST DATE. One week later, Annalise, Trevor, and all of their friends went to Pirates of Emerson, a haunted house. Annalise was so scared that she ended up holding hands with Trevor for the first time. At the end of the night, in front of In-N-Out Burger, Trevor asked Annalise to be his girlfriend while their friends watched from inside. This marked the beginning of their 2.5 years of high school dating, filled with memories they look back on fondly today. Highlights include numerous school dances, beach trips with the top off in the Jeep, two fish, puppy promenades, country concerts, and dinner dates at El Nido and Zachary’s Pizza. Annalise was on the dance team, cheering Trevor on in basketball, while Trevor attended every dance performance (and there were a lot!), and they shared many more adventures.

After graduating in 2015, they ended up on opposite coasts, with Trevor in Seattle and Annalise in New York City. The next five years were spent visiting each other during the school year. Trevor kept up with Broadway shows and the performing arts scene, while Annalise embraced vibrant college life with frat formals and football games. Despite the distance, they always managed to meet up for holidays and enjoyed countless FaceTime calls. In 2020, their long-distance relationship came to an end when they decided to spend lockdown together back home in Danville. Thanks to their parents (and many roommates over the years) for putting up with them! Annalise then moved back to NYC in 2021, and Trevor went back to Seattle to pack up his bags and join her.

Which brings us to the present! In July 2022, Trevor proposed to Annalise at their favorite beach north of Santa Cruz. Since then, they have enjoyed being together, exploring NYC, traveling to the Dominican Republic, Portugal, and France, and bee-bopping around the country to visit friends and family. They eagerly look forward to celebrating their love with all of you on October 20, 2024, which will be their 12th dating anniversary and the day they tie the knot near where it all started.
