Joanne & Dennis
October 17, 2022
We met through a blind date and were together for 23 yrs and he finally proposed! My ring was absolutely beautiful. Dennis wanted to save on the NY Sales tax so he had the jeweler send the rings to his son in Phoenix when they were done. Long story short, by the time the package arrived to Dennis, someone had stolen the engagement ring and wedding band in transit. Someone threw a broken watch in the box to make it seem like something was in it. We were devastated! Everything had to be reordered. 2020 hits and our original date of October 17, 2020 had to be cancelled because of COVID. We don't stay down long though. On October 16, 2021, I finally had my dream wedding and it couldn't have been a more perfect day! Well. minus the fact that it poured all day. But, nothing was going to stop us from becoming husband and wife!
Amanda & Tyler
July 30, 2022
My fiancé (Tyler) and I met back in 2013 at Keystone College. Through a (somewhat) joke, we made a pact to be each other’s valentines for V-Day that year. We ultimately ended up celebrating in April and we had an immediate connection. We started to date in the summer of 2014 and tried long distance which didn’t work out, however, we remained friends (or at least tried). I was getting ready to begin grad school and Tyler was finishing up undergrad, we dated different people for a period of time, and then our paths crossed again in the spring of 2015. Tyler was in the friend zone (for a while) and was always mistaken as my boyfriend at family dinners (my grandmother treated him as her own and he was always around for the holidays/birthdays/parties). She has since passed but always said that Tyler is the love of my life, which is the absolute truth. Fast forward to 2017 and I was staying at Tyler’s apartment when I blurted out “I LOVE YOU” .. and here we are!! Tyler proposed to me in The Finger Lakes on 10/15/21 DURING A TORNADO WARNING! He is my best friend, my soulmate and 100% my better half. I cannot wait to be Mrs. Wilson on 5/19/23. My bridal gown appointment was absolutely amazing! Allison was wonderful and so helpful! She really listened to my vision(s) and was just overall amazing!!!
