Alexis had just finished her consulting gig with Alpha Omicron Pi HQ as a Sorority Consultant in February 2023. She had spent nearly two years traveling across the United States, visiting universities to advocate for and coach collegiate sorority women. Leaving her consulting days behind, she ventured back to the Austin area, which had been her home since 2014. Ready to start a new chapter in her life, she decided to download the popular dating app Hinge. At about the same time, Jared was on a trip in West Texas, exploring Big Bend with his buddies. He was encouraged to download Hinge as well. It wasn't long before the couple matched at the end of February and their love story began. On their first date at the Codependent in Downtown Austin, they talked for over three hours over multiple Cosmopolitans and Espresso Martinis. They discussed everything from their families and goals for the future to their shared interests in movies and nature. Alexis, as she would say, was "utterly obsessed" with Jared, and Jared was smitten and eager to see her again! They continued going on dates, and it wasn't long before they became "official" by the end of March 2023. They were engaged the following spring, on May 11, 2024. Alexis and Jared are so grateful to all their friends and family who have supported them thus far and are ready to celebrate BIG on Saturday, August 30, 2025! Get ready to party for our long awaited celebration :)
