36-year-old Pitch Perfect star Brittany Snow is living out her fairytale romance with her husband, 33-year-old real estate agent Tyler Stanaland.

Stanaland, who is 6 foot 2 inches, towers over Snow at 5 foot 4 inches. Their relationship has been kept on the downlow for most of the time they’ve been together. And if you’ve seen pictures of them together, you know just how beautiful they look together.

Other than that, what we do know is the pair got married just before the start of the pandemic in March of 2020, and they’ve managed to stay strong together for the last two years.

Snow had previously dated Andrew Jenks, Tyler Hoechlin, and William Tell. But the one that would end up being her Prince Charming was Stanaland.

Snow told Us Weekly in December of 2021, “I love being married. It’s not any different, but being married in a pandemic is really like the test of everything. If we can get through that, we’re good to go.”

How did they meet though?

Stanaland and Snow apparently had a lot of friends in common. One day back in 2018, he decided to slide into her DM’s and shoot his shot.

Snow told People, “He actually reached out to me on Instagram with a really lame pickup line.”

Stanaland recalls the couple’s first date, “We got tacos after years of being infatuated with one another and forgot how to speak entirely. There was a certain amount of tequila consumed, and then we just started talking a lot. Then we fell in love, and nothing has really changed. We’re still eating tacos and margaritas together.”

In September of 2018, Snow told Us Weekly how things were going with Stanaland. “Oh, yeah, [I’m in love],” she said.

First comes love, then comes engagement

It didn’t take long for the two love birds to decide that they were meant to spend forever together. Stanaland popped the question, and Snow announced it on her Instagram in February of 2019.

“A couple weeks ago, I said “YES” about a million times to the man of my wildest & most beautiful dreams,” Snow posted along with a photo of the two snuggling up to one another while she shows off her beautiful ring.

Stanaland also made a post about asking his dream girl to marry him. “A few weeks ago, I asked @brittanysnow one of the most important questions I may ever ask. Forever?”

He continued, “Luckily, she said yes and we’ve spent the last little while celebrating the old-fashioned way, together and with close friends and family. I don’t know how I got so lucky and I don’t know that I really understood what love is until you,” he said. “Everything changed when we met.”

Happily Ever After…

As we said earlier, the couple got married in March of 2020. It was days before the world went into quarantine for Covid.

They had an intimate, outdoor ceremony in Cielo Farms in Malibu. The cuisine included the couple’s favorite, tacos, and tequila. They even included their dog, Billie Jean, as a flower girl!

Snow told The Knot about the wedding, “I wasn’t nervous at all. It was all about us talking to each other and telling each other our hearts. It was perfect.”

Stanaland recalled his favorite moment of the wedding, which he said were the vows. He said, “The most memorable thing was staring into her eyes and giving my vows. There were 100 people there watching but it felt like it was just us.”

Outside of marriage

Stanaland was a professional surfer before settling down to work in real estate. However, he did go back and forth between the two professions in his 20s. At one point, he had to take a year off from surfing to deal with an illness called ulcerative colitis.

He recalls getting back into surfing after dealing with his illness, “The first day backing the water felt damn good. I could hardly paddle, let alone stand up but just being in the ocean again without an ostomy bag on my stomach was such a relief. From first surgery to last was about 11 months, but it was pretty much a full year out of the water and then about six more months until I felt close to 100 percent again.”

Now that he’s settled down into full-time real estate, he specializes in seaside properties. You can even catch him and possibly his beautiful bride on the most recent season of Selling The OC.

In April 2016, Brittany Snow looked hot in red at the 2016 MTV Movie Awards held at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California.

The then-30-year-old American actress and singer sported a vibrant ruby-hued cape-sleeve dress with a deep-V neck from the Haney Resort 2016 Collection.
