Alabama Strangers - We're Almost There! 🖤
Alabama Strangers - We're Almost There! 🖤
I cannot even begin to explain how excited I am to finally meet so many of you this weekend. What started as applications and messages is about to turn into real, in-person moments—and that is something I will never take lightly.
To every single person who applied for the Alabama Stranger Sessions… thank you. Truly. Whether you were matched for this round or not, I want you to know how much I appreciate your vulnerability, your time, and your willingness to trust me with something so unique. Getting the opportunity to try and match you with someone is something I don’t take for granted, and I’m so grateful for each of you.
For Those Participating in Sessions 🌿
I am SO excited to meet you and document your experience. This weekend is going to be something special, and I hope you come into it open, present, and ready to embrace whatever unfolds.
If you’re a guy wanting to bring flowers for your match, I’ve got something special for you:
💐 Noella’s Flowers in Huntsville is offering 10% off when you show them the coupon attached to the bottom of this blog. They will be open for Saturday sessions only (closed Sunday), so plan accordingly if you’d like to grab something meaningful for your match.
Let’s Hang Out — Stranger Meetups 🍸
My husband Joey and I wanted to create a space where everyone—matched or not—can come together, relax, and just be human with each other outside of the camera.
We’ll be at Neighbors on Main:
- Saturday at 8:00 PM
- Sunday at 8:00 PM
We’re not putting a strict timeline on it—we’ll stay as long as it feels right—but the goal is simple: hang out, connect, laugh, and get to know each other in a low-pressure environment.
The owner, Dana, is even creating a signature Stranger Sessions cocktail and a mocktail version just for us, which makes it feel even more special.
If you are scheduled for a Sunday session, I kindly ask that you wait until the Sunday night meetup to attend—this helps avoid accidentally meeting your match too early and keeps the experience as authentic and special as possible.
This is open to anyone who applied for Alabama, whether you were matched or not. I would absolutely love to meet you.

I’ve also put together a curated list of things to do around Huntsville for the weekend—whether you’re exploring solo, with your match, or just making the most of your time here. I’ll include that list along with this blog so you can plan your experience however you’d like.
