TyTin The Knot!
Our love story
From a day after Christmas in Las Vegas to a midnight proposal on New Year's Day.
December 26, 2022 · Las Vegas
Tylor and Austin met in Las Vegas the day after Christmas. After a friendly first meeting in person, they exchanged numbers, and soon the texts and FaceTime calls were coming often. They weren't a couple yet, but Tylor kept finding reasons to visit Vegas. Austin was different from anyone he had tried to date before. They became friends first, with a whole lot of attraction on the side.
January 13, 2023 · Cafe Lola
They met for breakfast at Cafe Lola, and it turned into an all day adventure. That was the start of their dating chapter.
February 24, 2023
About a month later, Austin asked Tylor to be his boyfriend.
Late March 2023 · Molokaʻi
A month later, Austin came to visit Tylor on Molokaʻi. At the time, Tylor was getting ready to move to Las Vegas to be with Austin. During the visit they took a stroll down the wharf, and Austin stepped away for some fresh air. He came back to a nervous Tylor waiting in the car and said, “I can’t take you away from your beautiful island. I’ll move here.” They celebrated with dinner at Hiro’s ʻOhana Grill.
March 30, 2023 · Instagram
They made it official on Instagram, and the post took off with over 80,000 views, 460 likes and 2,000 shares. Neither of them had ever posted a significant other before, so the texts and calls came pouring in.
Watch the reelMay 1, 2023 · Kaunakakai
Austin moved to Molokaʻi, and the two found a place of their own at Puʻu Hauʻoli in Kaunakakai. It was the start of many adventures, events and vacations together.
New Year’s Eve 2025 · January 1, 2026
At 11:50 pm on December 31, Austin asked Tylor’s parents for their permission. At midnight on January 1, 2026, he got down on one knee and proposed with Tylor’s dream engagement ring, the Les Gastons Vuitton Small Ring in yellow gold and titanium.
Today
Today they run their company, BUJIFIED Hawaii LLC, together full time. When they aren’t volunteering in their community, they’re traveling the world and taking on new opportunities. Next stop: July 17, 2027.
Itinerary
We're hosting all of our traveling ʻohana for a Hawaiian food dinner at One Aliʻi.
Ceremony details are coming soon. Check back here for the location.
Come ready for a late night.
One last meal together back at One Aliʻi Park while we clean up and pack up from the night before. We'd love to have our ʻohana and friends who came from afar join us for lunch before we say a hui hou.
Rehearsal dinner & reception

Getting here
Fly into Honolulu (HNL), then hop over to Molokaʻi Airport (MKK) in Hoʻolehua. Two airlines fly the route, and each one leaves Honolulu from its own terminal, separate from the main terminals. Give yourself time to pick up your bags and get over there.
2 free checked bags
Where to stay
Hotel Molokaʻi and Molokai Shores are the closest places to stay. Airbnb is a great way to book them.

Welcome to Molokaʻi
Molokaʻi is home for us, and we can't wait to share it with you. It's a small town island with about 7,000 people, no traffic lights, no chain restaurants and no building taller than a coconut tree. Life here moves slow, and that's the best part.
Everybody knows everybody, so expect to talk story. Wave back, say hi at the store, and don't be surprised when a quick errand turns into a half hour conversation. That's just how it is here.
A few things to know: cell service can be spotty, there are only a few ATMs so bring some cash, and many businesses close on Sundays. Please ask before going onto land that may be private, and take your photos with respect. Spending your money at local spots means a lot to this community.
A guided walk through one of the oldest settled valleys in Hawaiʻi, ending with a swim at Moʻoʻula Falls. The trail crosses private family land, so you can only go with a guide. Book ahead with the Solatorio ʻohana, and plan on about a 1.5 hour drive to the East End.
At Pālāʻau State Park, look down about 1,600 feet onto the Kalaupapa peninsula, framed by some of the tallest sea cliffs in the world. Tours down to the peninsula are paused right now, but the lookout is free.
The Molokaʻi classic. At night, walk down the alley behind the bakery in Kaunakakai and get a fresh loaf filled with butter, cinnamon, cream cheese or jelly. There's no hot bread on Monday nights and the bakery is closed Tuesdays, so ask around for that night's hours.
At the Hoʻolehua Post Office, pick a coconut, decorate it and mail it home with no box needed. The coconuts and markers are free, and you only pay for postage.
Three miles of white sand on the West End, and the best sunset on the island. The surf and currents can be strong, so it's better for walking than swimming.
Will you join us?
Let us know you're coming so we can plan for you and your ohana. It only takes a minute.
