We met on St. Patrick's Day in 2019. Michelle and our good friend, Scott had planned to attend a block party in San Francisco that day. Scott had also invited a group of friends from college at Sonoma State University. To keep it short and sweet, we met that day and the rest is history. Within 24 hours of that day, Alex text me to ask me out on our first date! I was rather nervous, so I told him I was running late and that I'd just meet him at The Oxbow in Napa, rather than letting him pick me up. After that we enjoyed a couple of rounds at Field Work, followed by dinner at Ristorante Allegria and to end the night a nightcap at Cadet Wine bar. The night was perfect. Michelle later went home and shared with her sister that she's going to marry that guy. Over the years we've found love in snowboarding, travel & our home. We frequent the islands of Hawaii, Mexico and Tahoe; and we're always on the hunt for our next adventure, big or small. In February of 2024, we went to Maui for Michelle's 32nd birthday. We visited one of our favorite spots, Monkey Pod for a happy hour Mai Tai before our dinner reservation. Before leaving for dinner, Alex suggested we walk the beach and take a few photos. Only to Michelle's surprise he had other plans, as well. After a few photos snapped, Alex got down on one knee and asked the best question - "will you marry me?" Obviously, since you're reading this, the answer was yes, but it wasn't so obvious at first. Rather than celebrate, Michelle ran about 10 yards in the opposite direction in utter shock but ultimately said "YES!" We look forward to forever and are so happy to invite you to celebrate with us!
