Jeanelle went to a random baseball party at some guy’s apartment — too soon to realize it was her future husband’s. That night, she noticed they were in the same class and made sure he knew it. After that? Nothing. Until about a week and a half later, when Alex messaged her on Instagram “about the homework” — but let’s be honest, we all know what he was really doing.

Jeanelle and Alex had strong feelings for each other during college and dated for a while, but life had other plans. They went their separate ways… for a bit. It wasn’t until after college, when they reconnected in California, that Alex asked her to be his girlfriend, so she wouldn’t get away this time.

After knowing each other for years and officially being together for three, Alex decided it was time to make it official. He proposed during their trip to Puerto Rico, Jeanelle’s roots and a place that holds a special meaning to her. Safe to say… she said yes!
