We were fortunate enough to meet organically through a friend. Some might call her the modern day cupid. Brandi was looking for a new place to live and her friend and co-worker Nikki mentioned they had an open room in her 3BR 3BA condo. She was living with Alex. Brandi went to check out the place (this was before her and Alex had ever met). Luckily the closet was too small so Brandi never ended up being Alex's roommate; not at that point anyway. It was a couple weeks later when they all decided to go out to Monday night karaoke. Brandi sang Fiona Apple's criminal and Alex knew right then and there that he could never live without those sweet vocals of an Angel.
Alex was sweet enough to gather roughly 30 close friends and family members in Las Vegas. It was under the guise of gathering for Brandi's best friend Nicole's belated birthday celebration. Nicole picked Brandi up to go to "brunch" out at Lake Las Vegas with all the "girls". The boys were supposedly golfing all day (Alex even packed his clubs and drove out to Las Vegas with them in the trunk). Brandi had never seen Nicole drive that slow before, but when they did arrive Alex was waiting under the bridge next to the water to ask her to be his wife. Everyone was watching from the bridge above and screamed in excitement when she said yes. They all went for a sunset cruise out on Lake Las Vegas following the proposal. It was a beautiful day.
