Chihiro and Tyler met in a forest! One day Tyler asked Chihiro to meet him for lunch at Spotted Salamander, where they chatted over Brussels sprouts and pimiento cheese. A couple days later, Chihiro had to take her car in for service and Tyler came to rescue her from boredom. They went pumpkin shopping at the farmers market, and then soon they went lots of other places together. They discovered that they made each other very happy and were almost immediately inseparable. They ate and rode bikes and did fun stuff with their kids, and it’s still going!

Then one day - in the same forest! - Tyler asked Chihiro to marry him, and she agreed! And here we are. We look forward to celebrating our story with you at our wedding in 2025!
