Our Story

Seven years ago, we met but apparently at different times. Chris remembers meeting Lexi on Rockhurst’s Quad, and Lexi remembers meeting Chris at a St. Patrick’s Day SAE party. Anyway… the next fall, Chris nervously asked Lexi to a date party where they dressed as Dalmatians (peep the photo tab above). After hanging out, they both learned about each other’s love for family, dark humor, and alternative music. College passed and included some of the sweetest memories, especially those at 5600 Forest, 5011 Virginia, and 4438 Washington with the sweetest friends. Years following college we got even closer with each other's friends and families and realized we make a pretty good team. After dating for five and a half years Chris proposed to Lexi on Memorial Day weekend which just happened to be the first day they were moving in together- A perfect plot to trick Lexi into having no idea it was coming. After she said yes and they popped the champagne there was one more surprise. Chris had all of their family and friends at a secret location to surprise her. That’s when the tears and drinks started flowing! Fast forward a year and a half and one dog later- here we are just months from the wedding. It’s so exciting to think about the big day and we can’t wait to see you there. Thank you for celebrating this time with us!
