Like all modern love stories, it began with a simple swipe and a match on Hinge. Thomas opened up strong by commenting, "Did you know koalas have chlamydia?" on a photo of Alyssa in Australia. A week later, we found ourselves at the GOAT for dinner. While Alyssa was too nervous to eat, Thomas, on the other hand, was nervously devouring everything in sight. The first date ended without a kiss from Thomas, leaving Alyssa convinced that he wasn't into her. Contrary to her fears, it turned out that Thomas was just as smitten. After the second date, we became inseparable. Fast forward two and a half years, and Thomas proposed on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Now, after a journey filled with laughter, too many shared meals, and countless cherished moments, we are getting legally bound!
