I decided last minute to go on a roadtrip to Miami with two of my friends for spring break. Once we got there I did what any sensible person in their 20s would do: I checked my online dating app. I matched with Alex and since he had a picture standing next to my favorite comedian, I knew I had to meet him. We met at a bar called The Broken Shaker and spent the whole night talking and laughing. I knew right then that I had met my husband.
February 17 was always going to be a big day in our journey. We closed on our first ever home together that morning and were overjoyed to be making our move. We went to dinner that evening to celebrate. Afterwards, even though it was late, Alex suggested we go see the house again now that it was ours. Upon opening the door, I was shocked to see rose petals arranged into a heart on the floor. I was so shocked, in fact, that my first thought was that the previous owners had left them behind (LOL). I turned around to see Alex on one knee and I immediately started crying! I said yes (obviously) and now we're getting married!!
