Alex and Chelsea first met when Alex came down to Gearhart, Oregon to work a weeks shift at Mcmenimans as a guest bartender from the Kalama location. The two hit it off instantly and spent the next 12 days only separating when work got in the way. On that dreadful 12th day, Chelsea started her journey East by heading to Minnesota to work for a few days and then relocate to St Thomas Virgin Islands. After Snapchatting, Instagram video attempting, FaceTiming, and sometimes having to resort to Skype, Alex finally came to visit Chelsea in April 2019, almost 2 months after seeing each other last. After April it wasn't 30 more days before he was back in May, and it was then he decided she was just too expensive to date from afar, and he decided to take the plunge and move! When Chelsea told her dad he laughed for a very long time before he finally said, 'Well, if it doesn't work out, you'll know real quick'. In 5 years since then, they have moved to Portland, Maine via road trip with two cats in tow. Alex finished a DPT grad school program, Chelsea continued to build her massage business, they've traveled to Mexico, Portugal, Greece, Puerto Rico, BVI's, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, California, Minnesota, Oregon, Washington and so many states in between. They added a dog to the mix named Mochi and on December 1, 2023 Alex dropped a knee on Scarborough Beach and told Chelsea that she was the one he wanted to do life with (Spoiler alert, she said yes!). And now they are getting married in Oronoco, Minnesota at Chelsea's sister Jessie's wedding venue that she and her family have been working on for four years! Come celebrate their love, because they love you all so much!
