Alex and Grayson are the embodiment of a modern day romance, a true millennial love story. Dating apps (yes multiple), ghosting accusations, and sheer persistence from Grayson led to what ultimately turned into the reason we will all gather in October 2021. Grayson and Alex first started talking on one dating app when Alex was still living in Chapel Hill (gross). Alex was unwilling to drive to Greensboro for a nice romantic evening, and so as much as Grayson tried, fate would not have them meet at that point in time. Around a year later, Alex popped up on another app, much to Grayson's delight, and the two reinitiated their conversation. The two started dating with Alex now living in Greensboro, and the rest wa-- wait, nope, still a little more turbulence before the two arrived to cruising altitude. Alex was not quite ready to commit after a few months of seeing each other, so Grayson waited patiently and respectfully, dutifully texting Alex whenever it seemed appropriate. Alex claims Grayson seemed more committed to watching NC State Basketball or his fantasy football team, which were causes for her trepidation. Finally, after the aforementioned persistence and perseverance, and a timely trip to Puerto Rico for a few days, the two grew closer and have only grown in their love for each other since.
Grayson continually surprises me with his hidden talents. For example, he did his portions of this wedding website with such ease while I anguished over every word. Somehow, his parts turned out better than mine and took 1/18th of the time. Grayson gets stressed about absolutely nothing, yet is incredibly smart and successful in everything he does (except beating me in board games). He is kind, patient, and understanding. I believe he is my equal and perfect partner. I cannot wait to call him my husband. We are looking forward to October 2, 2021 and are excited to celebrate our special day with each and every one of you!
