Story
In the fall of 2013 both Alyssa and Daniel turned to their favorite friend, the Internet, in order to find someone fun to hang out with. Daniel messaged Alyssa first with a cute comment about her pressed penny collection (a fun fact Alyssa listed on her OkCupid account) which turned into a few days of exchanged messages. Those few days turned into a week of text messaging before we both knew we had to meet in person.
We began our first date by meeting in the mall parking lot where we left to explore the Opryland hotel, have dinner, and play some video games.
We went on our second date three days later, and our third date was a day trip to Chattanooga three days after that.
After two and a half years of dating, Daniel popped the question on July 31st, 2016! We're so excited to marry each other!
