Alex and Rachel met at their friend Armel's wedding in November 2013. Rachel was the maid of honor at the wedding, and after her speech Alex introduced himself. They talked and danced all night. At the end of the night, Armel grabbed Rachel's face and said, "go on a date with Alex - you two are gonna get married." After her first date with Alex, Rachel had to agree with Armel - this was it. They've been talking, laughing and loving each other ever since.
