Alex and Liz met in the most romantic of settings: playing Rage Cage alongside one another at a college house party back in 2016. When Liz told Alex she was also studying Aerospace Engineering, he was pretty sure he had hit the jackpot. A girl in the aerospace department? What were the odds?! (they were about 7%) After their first meeting began a do-si-do of Alex trying to get Liz on a study date by offering to tutor her in classes he had already taken, and Liz stubbornly dodging the offers because she didn't need a MAN to teach her a thing. But on the evening of Liz's initiation into Chi Omega, Alex invited Liz to a party. No studying, just a bottle of Apple Ciroc and.. you guessed it: more Rage Cage. That night sparks flew and the next day they went on their first date at Kreuzberg California coffee shop. Alex bought Liz her favorite, an Iced Tuxedo Mocha, and treated him self to a plain black coffee. Liz knew she was looking for a partner who was kind, cute, smart, and, most importantly, funny. Alex was undeniably all of those things. Though Liz remains the funny one in the relationship Alex is a close runner up according to the author of this section of the website. The two of them became official on February 9th, 2017 and so their journey together began. Since then they have traveled the world together, lived all over the west coast, and made so many special memories growing together. Their love is their favorite never-ending adventure that persists through life's toughest moments and erupts joyfully during its best. Alex proposed on the Ewoldsen Trail in Big Sur, California on October 18th, 2024. For Liz it was the easiest long awaited "Yes" in her life. They are absolutely ecstatic to be getting married to one another and cannot wait to celebrate with all of their loved ones soon!
