Meet Alyssa and Patrick. Here’s their #LoveInTheBOI story:

How did you two meet?

We met at Dirty Little Roddy's on St. Patrick's Day 2017.

Describe Your First Date

Our first date was at Moon's Kitchen Cafe. It was the last day that we were able to hang out before I had to leave to go back to Washington (where I was living at the time).

What are you favorite local things to do & places to go?

We love to experience the local brewery scene - such as White Dog Brewing and Craft Brewer's of Boise. As well as hang out with our dog, Ruby, at Hops & Bottles!

What is one word of advice you have to those who are still in search of love?

This is sort of an update to our "Love in the BOI" from last year - but... Take a chance and put yourself out there, you might just meet your future spouse! We are getting married this August! The fact that we both put ourselves out there the night we met, completely changed our lives!

Last year, Alyssa and Patrick were featured in their own Love in the BOI feature. At the time, they were dating. I’m so happy to see their have a #LoveInTheBOI update! Make sure to follow them on social media at @alyssajean93 and @pappy_van879. I anticipate some great wedding photos in their near future.
