As Ray tells it: we were set up by friends. The end. As Leah tells it: Ray and my friend Alex started on the same day at BCG. A few weeks later Alex and his now-wife Lindsey (who was my roommate at business school and also a BCGer) texted me about him… *Twenty minutes later of details.* …and so we finally met for brunch a year later. *Twenty more minutes of details.* …and then we went on our first official solo date three weeks later. (Come to the wedding to fill in the blanks.)

In between watching “The Meg” (an action movie about a giant shark), Ray popped the question at our condo before our Friday night date night. (Once again, see Leah for the longer version of the story.)
