Hi! Here is a sneak peek to our love story, consisting of fate, forgotten texts, a beach date, and a very memorable pair of biceps.

We technically "met" on Hinge, but Taylor was determined to meet someone "organically." So, just after Kyle got her number, she pulled the plug on the app and went off to find love the old-fashioned way - without a screen. The timing? Impeccably bad. The texting fizzled, and it seemed like that was that.

Fast forward a few months to December 4, 2021. Taylor was out walking along the boardwalk with her mini goldendoodle, Oakley, and a friend, when she passed a guy in a white t-shirt and Alabama hat. More importantly: the biceps. She did a double take. Wait a second.. is that Kyle from Hinge?!

She frantically scrolled through her old messages and found their text thread. Oops. She had missed a couple replies back to Kyle, but she decided to shoot her shot and send him a reply months later. Moments later, Kyle FaceTimed her. And just like that, the spark that had briefly flickered months before turned into a full-on flame.

Their first date was classic SoCal: a beach picnic, wine, and deep talks on a lifeguard tower while the sun set. It was dreamy. It was fun. It felt like home!

And the rest? Well, it has been a beautiful, laughter-filled adventure ever since. We cannot wait to celebrate the next chapter with all of you!
