As many of you know, we met in New York City in the summer of 2018. Our first date was sparked by ample Hinge conversations surrounding our affinity for food, fitness, travel, and most importantly, reggaetón music. Despite a couple of mishaps involving Alex tripping on her oversized flip flops multiple times in one date, and getting Nees' hairbrush [very] stuck in her hair early on, love prevailed. We spent two years making trips between Long Island and New York City, relishing in the abundance of pizza, BECs, and rooftop cocktails along the way. Exactly two years after our first date we moved to California together, where we've been enjoying the wine, weather, mountains, and California coast ever since. Nees proposed in the beautiful Carmel by the Sea in 2021. Although we love our life in California, we miss the City, and are thrilled to tie the knot back where it all began!
