We were both out of town for a night of fun with our friends for St. Patrick's day. We were in downtown Savannah, Georgia when we caught each other's eye. We lost each other for a second until he reappeared out of nowhere and pulled me to the side to spark a conversation. We talked for a short while but it felt like we've known each other our whole lives. We exchanged numbers and went our separate ways; later we found out that we were both from out of state, but didn't let the distance get in between our connection. As we continued to talk we felt a deeper connection within each other and it bloomed into a relationship.
For Our One Year Anniversary we got a hotel room in Charlotte, North Carolina. Alexis went out to grab some dinner and expected to come back into the room to some sort of prank. Little did Alexis know what was about to happen. With the little time Rowonn had to prepare, he set the room up with rose petals, candles and anniversary gifts. Upon opening the room door Alexis was shocked to walk into a beautifully decorated room. Overflowed with joy as she took it all in, Rowonn started expressing how he feels about Alexis and their relationship. He gets down on one knee and pulls out a ring and asks Alexis for her hand in marriage. With tears in her eyes Alexis said " HELL YES!" We both cried into each others embrace and haven't stopped smiling since. We cannot wait to start our lives together! Join us in bringing more Love, Life, Peace, and Happiness into the world!
