Calvin and Alex met the way many millennial couples do- on a dating app! On Halloween 2017 Calvin sent his first message to Alex, asking her what book she was currently reading (little did he know this would be a daily conversation topic for the next 4 years). Alex thought this was an excellent question to ask, and immediately responded. From there, Alex asked Calvin on their first date- which he arrived late to. After talking about their mutual love of reading, comic book characters, board games, and trying new foods- the rest was history. Calvin and Alex went on their first international trip together to Hong Kong/ China in 2018, where Calvin promptly left Alex's engagement ring behind in an unoccupied Airbnb hours away. Thankfully his mom saved the day and rescued the ring, and in the end Calvin proposed in the most magical place ever: Disneyland! Alex immediately accepted and they began what they planned to be a long engagement. They were not far into their engagement when they were informed Calvin's uncle had thoughtfully spoken to a fortune teller on his behalf. The fortune teller stated that Calvin would need to be married in 2019 in order to have good luck (or wait another 8 years). Alex and Calvin disregarded this situation for 11 months, but Alex decided she could not take any chances. Alex and Calvin were married at the Bloomfield Hills courthouse on December 20, 2019. And it was the best decision they ever made!
