______ In the late summer of 2021, Matt and I met while working at a lakeside restaurant in Webster, NY. With a little persistence on Matt’s part, our friendship soon grew into something much deeper. By late 2022, we made our relationship official. On January 30, 2025, during what I thought was simply a birthday trip to Aruba, Matt got down on one knee—and I joyfully said yes! What I expected to be a fun getaway quickly became a moment I’ll cherish forever. Four unforgettable years together have led us here, ready to begin our next chapter as husband and wife. We are overjoyed to share this special day with our dearest family and friends. Your love and support mean the world to us. We can’t wait to celebrate and see you all in August! XO, Alexis & Matt
