Ashley and Tyler’s paths crossed in Quakertown long before they actually met. They both went to the same elementary school, but Tyler was blissfully unaware of Ashley. Fast forward to 2021, they bumped into each other at Maxx Fitness. Tyler spoke to Ashley a few times, but ultimately it fizzled out. Tyler was going back to Penn State to start his senior year and Ashley had just graduated that past May. Then came January 21, 2022—Ashley’s 23rd birthday. She was celebrating at Bill Pickles Taproom, a bar from her Alma Mater Penn State. Coincidentally, Tyler's night was just about to "take off" as he walked into Pickles that same night. His night, however took a turn when he received a text from Ashley: “Buy me a shot? It’s my birthday!” Tyler didn't think twice and that birthday shot led to a night of laughter and connection. What Tyler thought was going to be an average night turned into the start of their love story. Sometimes, it turns out, true love comes with a shot and a text message.
