We met in college marching band during my freshman year and Alex's sophomore year. We noticed each other right away, exchanging glances, but never finding the courage to say hello-until Alex finally sent me a DM on Instagram The night before leaving for a football bowl game in Arizona, we met for coffee, expecting something quick. Instead, we talked for hours, losing track of time and ending the night only because Alex still hadn't packed 🤭 During the trip, we spent nearly every moment together. One unforgettable evening, we talked on the rooftop of our resort, and just as the night felt perfect, we watched a shooting star cross the sky. It felt like a moment meant just for us. When we returned home, we went on our first official date in downtown El Paso-and from then on, we knew this was the beginning of something special. Now, we're so excited to celebrate our forever with the people we love most.
