Taryn and Freddie’s love story began on

May 2, 2023, at a ChiTribe speed dating event—with a little help from tacos and margaritas. Freddie arrived early, chatting with people and enjoying the food. Taryn, true to form, ran late — but as soon as she walked in, she caught Freddie’s eye.

Although they weren’t assigned to the same table at first, Freddie confidently introduced himself before the event officially began. When fate seated them together in the second round, sparks flew. Neither remembers exactly what they talked about, but they instantly clicked. After the event, while others mingled, they sat together for over an hour, discussing food and travel. That weekend, they went on their first date, and since that night, they have never spent more than a few days apart.
