Our Story

Alysha and Gunnison first became coworkers in February of 2022. Over their time together, they learned that they had met their soulmate. Though they faced some hardships and HR issues, the two became an official couple in May of 2023. After the best 2 years of their lives, Gunnison asked Alysha to marry him on their beach vacation to Turks and Caicos on July 3rd, 2025. It was a perfect day, and the two began planning the wedding of their dreams and building their life together. They bought a house in March of this year, and are enjoying life with each other and their two dogs (kids, basically), Camper and Murphy. In October of 2024, the pair had visited Maroon Bells in Aspen, CO, and fell in love with the prettiest view they had ever seen. Fast forward to after the proposal, they became ecstatic to learn that they could get married there! Gunnison and Alysha are so excited to have all of their favorite people take part in their love story on the future best day of their lives, September 21st, 2026!
