Our journey began ten years ago, with a right swipe and a first date at The Oyster Bah in Chicago. While the oysters were great, the real highlight was realizing that a Tinder match could actually feel like home. We spent that night talking until the restaurant closed, knowing almost immediately that we’d found something special in the heart of the Windy City.

After few years of mid-west adventures, the two of us traded the Chicago skyline for the sunshine of Florida to spend more of our time with Tyler’s family. As our love grew, so did our family. We eventually welcomed a beautiful morkie puppy, Loki into our lives, and he quickly became our favorite thing in the world (and the undisputed boss of the household).

We enjoyed the precious time we had with Tyler's mom and dad, Becky and Barry. However, as much as Tyler loved the sun and Loki loved being around his grandparents, our new niece, Chloe needed her Aunt and Uncle back in the Midwest. We made the move to Michigan, coming full circle back to where our story started. From city lights to Florida coasts and now home in Michigan, we’ve realized it doesn't really matter where we are—as long as we have each other (and Loki, of course).
