Their story began at ODCVI back in February 2013. Lexi was in Grade 9 and Cam in Grade 10 when she walked into class and noticed him sitting in her usual seat. The moment their eyes met and Cam smiled and spoke to her, time seemed to stop. That night she went home and told her Nanny she was going to marry the boy she had met in drama class. What started as a teenage crush quickly became something real and lasting. They couldn’t stay apart, always finding excuses to see each other, talking for hours, and laughing about everything and nothing at all. Over the years, they have grown up side by side, navigating milestones, cheering each other on through new adventures, and building a life rooted in love, friendship, and endless support. They’ve celebrated the start of their careers, bought their first home, and welcomed their beloved puppy, Tilly, who quickly became the heart of their little family. A decade later, they’re still laughing, still growing, and still a little bit obsessed with each other (and Tilly). It turns out Lexi was right that day, she really did meet the boy she was going to marry.

After more than a decade together, Cam planned a proposal that was heartfelt and surprising. On October 18, 2024, he told Lexi they were stopping to pick up a golf club (classic) off Marketplace before heading to a family dinner. What she didn’t know was that the day had been carefully planned to create the perfect moment. After a disagreement on the drive (a true testament to real love), Cam parked on a quiet property and led Lexi out of the truck. Around a corner awaited a picnic blanket, champagne, and a hidden photographer ready to capture the moment. When Cam got down on one knee and asked Lexi to marry him, she was shaking and speechless (maybe the first time ever) as a wave of joy swept over her, just like the very first day they met. The surprises didn’t end there: when they arrived home, a small group of family and friends were waiting to surprise and celebrate with the couple. The evening was filled with laughter, music, too much alcohol and love — a perfect start to the next chapter of their life together. .
