We met through a mutual friend, whom Abby was working with at the time and Alex knew from college at Vanderbilt. We met up a few times after work for happy hour and the rest is history.

We were staying out at the beach and had plans to go out to dinner with friends. Little did Abby know Alex had been planning something else for months. To get Abby to stop working, Alex’s mom made up a story about how there was a shark washed up on the beach, and even found a picture that she texted to the family group chat. Needless to say, there was no shark. Alex had a photographer waiting on the beach who captured the whole thing. When we got back up to the house our closest family and friends were there waiting to celebrate. Alex planned an amazing COVID-safe weekend for everyone where we even harvested our own grapes for wine!
