It all started on a dark, stormy night—or so Alex claims. In his version, Lexi slid into his DMs on Instagram. (Spoiler alert: that did not happen.) And from there… well, let’s just say things got interesting. The real story? Alex and Lexi first crossed paths on the first day of junior year in 2014, but they didn’t officially meet until Alex made the bold move of sliding into Lexi’s DMs halfway through the fall semester. Their first date? Pure magic—if your idea of magic is hanging out in a Dutch Bros parking lot, laughing uncontrollably at absolutely nothing and everything. (10/10 would recommend.) Fast-forward six months of nonstop hangouts, inside jokes, and way too much caffeine, and on May 5th, 2015, Alex pulled off the ultimate romantic move: a dreamy picnic complete with Dutch Bros, chocolate-covered strawberries, and a bouquet of fire roses to ask Lexi to be his girlfriend. (She said yes!) Since then, it’s been ten incredible years of adventures. They’ve graduated high school and college together, brought home the world’s cutest corgi, Marvel, jet-setted to Greece and Australia, and kicked off their careers side by side. And now? These high school sweethearts are making it official! Alex and Lexi can’t wait to celebrate this next wild, wonderful chapter with the people they love most!
