Amanda and Alex met on New Years Eve in 2007. Alex’s first professional broadcasting job brought him to Lewiston, Maine, which happens to be Amanda’s hometown. Amanda was home for the holidays and they were both invited out to dinner with mutual friends. They hit it off right away! After dating briefly, life pulled them in different directions and parts of the country, but they stayed close and always kept in touch. They always knew that they had something very special and decided to finally make it “official” in 2019. In 2021, Amanda relocated from Arizona to Florida so they could finally be together. Alex proposed in December 2021.
