We met when we were partnered up in one of our first college classes, called "QU 101." It wasn't long before we found out that we lived in the same dorm... ...{Gabe's version: "and Alex started following me back after class"} ...{Alex's version: "and Gabe practically BEGGED me to walk back with him"}.

After many walks from class, Gabe asked me to be his girlfriend in November 2012. Our first date was as fancy as you can get at 18-years-old...dinner in New Haven, complete with shuttle transportation provided by Quinnipiac.

We're happy to report that Gabe has since stepped up the romance-game, and Quinnipiac still holds a very special place in our hearts. In May 2021, we walked the same path that we used to take from class, and Gabe proposed on the bridge that leads up to our old dorm building!

November 2022, ten years since we started calling each other "boyfriend and girlfriend," we will finally call each other "husband and wife" in front of all of our family and friends who have supported us along the way. LETS SEAL THE DEAL, FOLKS!
