It all started back in January of 2019. Alex's fraternity and Jena's sorority were paired together for UNF's Homecoming week. Both Jena and Alex decided to participate in the Lip Sync dance competition. Super Bowl weekend came around, and it was time to finally partner up. As people began to couple up, Alex held out his hand and politely said, "Want to do this?" Jena looked at her other option, a very drunk man, and knew Alex was the right choice. Their friendship grew as practices continued, and they found themselves looking forward to practice each night. There were many laughs at Applebees, walks on the beach, and many texts. Finally, the competition came and their team secured first place. But their friendship didn't stop there. They continued to hang out and attended the school's carnival together. It was there that Alex formally asked Jena on their first date to the Homecoming basketball game. They attended the game, got dinner at Blaze, and spent the evening watching Disney movies in Alex's dorm. After poor Alex suffered through three Disney movies, he officially asked Jena to be his girlfriend. Alex and Jena spent the next four years falling in love. They spent countless hours in UNF's library, attended many sorority and fraternity events, and made countless memories. Alex and Jena survived long distance when Alex worked in Texas and during the many months of Covid. They supported each other through family deaths and rejoiced together during celebrations. Then, they moved in together and added Daisy to their family. Surprisingly, they never tired of spending time together. They soon realized it was not a question of IF they would be married, but rather WHEN. Alex gave them that answer. On September 17, 2023, Alex and Jena woke up bright and early to head to the beach and watch the sunrise. When they arrived, they set up their picnic and enjoyed the quality time together. They ate breakfast and took many pictures of the gorgeous views. When the sunrise hit its peak, Alex pulled out the ring and proposed. Jena quickly shed happy tears and eagerly accepted. As they prepare for this wedding, they are excitedly awaiting their future — the next chapter of their love story.
