We're getting married!

Alex and Jake met in college at SDSU in Jake’s hometown of Brookings, SD. They were both on the track team (Alex a distance runner and Jake a jumper). Alex always had a crush on Jake, but their relationship really sparked when Jake worked up the courage to tell Alex on Facebook messenger that she “had some sweet shoes on”. In Alex’s mind, that translated to “Alex, will you marry me 10 years from now?” And with a persistent pursuit and a lot of patience, the rest is history. Alex and Jake have spent a decade of fun, friendship, and love together moving from Brookings, SD to 5 years in NYC, to 3 years in Denver, CO, and now fate has brought them BACK to Brookings, SD this July. They share a beautiful son, Miles, who joined them 2 and a half years ago, and a shy 3 year old cat named Leia. They can’t wait to celebrate their love with you and kick off many more decades together.
