Alex and Rissa met in February 2015 after Alex had messaged Rissa on an online dating site. When he first messaged her on Valentine’s Day, Rissa brushed it off as just a guy trying to be cheesy. A few days later, she looked at his profile and realized that they seemed to have a lot in common. From the moment they met, they seemed to really click. They spent the next 4 days spending all their free time together: going to The Garage, taking cute photo booth pics, and ultimately falling for each other. After spending all that time together from Thursday to Sunday, they decided while at Discovery World that they wanted to be official girlfriend and boyfriend. After 3.5 years of dating, Alex finally built up the courage to ask Rissa to spend forever with him. To make it even more special, Alex asked Rissa to marry him on September 21, 2018 at the place that they made it official years prior: Discovery World! They are so overjoyed to be married and start their little family with their two dogs and cat. We truly cannot wait to spend our special day with you: our closest friends and family.
