Storyline

Taken just a few weeks after Alex & Rachel met in 2010, this photo shows the two lovebirds laughing at... something, most likely each other!

On this sunny day in Spring 2010, R + A are headed down Comm Ave towards the Boston University Student Union to attend graduation activities for Rachel, who graduated *first* in May 2010. Go terriers!

Young love! 💘 Both at age 21 in this classic pic, A + R attend Rachel's Senior Ball at the Boston University Museum of Fine Arts.

Such a special photo of R + A at Rachel's college graduation dinner in 2010 -- although Rachel's Grandma Goldy & Grandpa Ronny are no longer here today, they are certainly smiling down from Heaven.

In this photo, Rachel joins Alex at his Senior Ball @ the same location they danced together just a year prior, for Rachel's graduation! Check out these fresh BU grads - total power couple 😎

Circus in the Bahamas! Here, Alex joins Rachel on a 2011 family trip to the Atlantis Resort. Not surprisingly, Rachel was the only adult on the face-paint line and Alex managed to win the grand prize.

Always down to rally for a good time, R + A are shown, here, at a nightclub while on vacation in 2011 🌴Eight years later, they reminisce upon this picture before going to bed at 9:00PM sharp.

R + A out to dinner on a night in the summer of 2011 ❤️ they clean up nicely #memories

Forever a country boy, Alex is shown here in the Big Apple aside Rachel near the 2012 Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree ✨

Here's R + A on the eve of their 2-year anniversary. They celebrated by going out to dinner at the top of Boston's famous John Hancock tower. Rachel doesn't like heights, but she sure loves Alex!

Although R + A tend to value hard work over chance, here they are at Mohegan Sun to win big at roulette... and to celebrate Alex's 23rd birthday. Check out Alex's death grip of love!! 😮

Check out those sun tans! ☀️This pic was taken in 2012, on Rachel's first annual family trip to Cape Cod's P-town with the Cournoyer clan.

Despite their squinting countenances, R + A are quite thrilled to be standing near a herd of seals on the dunes during Rachel's 2nd trip to Cape Cod with the Cournoyer clan in 2012.

Happy as two clams! Another cute picture from the 2012 Pian family vacation to Dania Beach, Florida.

Taken during the summer of 2012 before Rachel started medical school, this photo shows the to-be-weds hanging out in Florida on another fun Pian family vacation.

This was one of the last pictures R + A took together while living in Boston and before moving to Albany for medical school. That's Jon, Alex's older bro & Best Man, in the backdrop!

Goodbye Boston, hello Albany! This photo was taken just after R + A moved into their first apartment together in New York's capitol city in the Fall of 2012.

Here, Alex joins Rachel in the winter of 2013 at the Albany Medical College student gala 🤓 P.S. Thanks, Al, for holding Rach's purse! #chivalryisntdead

Check out these cuties on the slopes at Killington Ski Resort in late Winter of 2014 ⛷

What a smooch! Rachel gives Alex a loving kiss on the cheek at a Vermont restaurant while enjoying a snowy weekend in this photo from 2014.

Glad in plaid, Rachel grins next to her knight in shining armor during a visit to Boston in Spring 2015. Here, they're pictured on Newbury Ave - their all-time fav place to shop💸

MOO-ve over for the future Cournoyers! In this photo from Halloween 2015, A + R reveal their silly sides at a family party.

Here, in a sweet photo from a Cournoyer family vacation to Cape Cod in 2016, Rachel squeezes the dear life out of AC 💪🏼#shemustworkout

There's no such thing as a #courny photo reel without a couple of goodlooking duck faces! 🦆

Feast your eyes on the biggest nerds you've ever seen 🤓 enjoying a mug of Alex's famous homemade stew in Dover, VT #kudostothechef

Say 🧀 and smile along with R + A -- here, they're at Manhattan's Smith & Wollensky in September 2016 to celebrate the birthday of R's younger bro, Rob.

Check out these cuties at a wedding in 2016! #toocourny or #notcournyenough?

When it comes to getting fancy, the future Cournoyers don't hesitate to do it up! 🕺🏻And what a fun, December night it was in 2016 at Glen Island Park on the Long Island Sound.

Both self-admitted foodies, R + A are seen here enjoying a fancy dinner at The Hermitage in Wilmington Vermont on NYE before ringing in 2016 together 🍾

Ice, ice, baby! ❄️When R + A hit the slopes at Mount Snow, it's a solid combination of skiing and selfies all day at the Bullwheel.

R + A took this candid shot in 2017 while enjoying a long weekend at a Culinary Resort & Spa in Essex, VT... as you can see, this was not a child-free weekend 🐶

R + A pose here, in the #courniest pic ever from last winter -- it seems staged, because it is! R's Maid of Honor snapped the shot at a potential wedding venue (which didn't make the cut).

Rachel grins from ear-to-ear next to her future hubs in this lovely photo from early Spring 2018 at CT's stunning Tolland Arts Center 🎨 Mary Blueberry is captured in the backdrop!

On a recent weekend in Oxford, Maine, R + A enjoyed the luscious scenery alongside family members while respecting the full and admirable life of Alex's late grandfather Roland Young.

The future Mr. and Mrs. Cournoyer, cheezin' big-time in this most recent photo from May 2018 - at their engagement dinner 💍 surrounded by love from their families and dearest friends!
