“Tyler and Leah are High School sweethearts and it was love at first sight. Fast forward to five years later- after many deployments, countless flights to see each other, and thousands of miles driven- Tyler was home on post-deployment leave when he asked Leah to spend forever with him. Of course she said yes and now three years later they are finally planning their wedding. This couple knows first hand that freedom isn't free, but in each other they have found their own definition of the American Dream. They describe their relationship using the words friendship, acceptance, unconditional love, trial and error, and adventure.”
