We met in high school during Sophie's senior year & Alexis's sophomore year at pre-season Lacrosse conditioning. Through out the season, we became close friends, eventually best friends, which of course led us to keep in touch after I graduated in 2012. Fast forward to 2013, during Alexis's junior year lacrosse season, Sophie was with her family watching her and the team play at a pre-season Fall ball tournament. Alexis's family received a devastating phone call and from that point forward we were together nonstop for months. At some point in time, we realized our relationship and feelings for one another were much stronger than your average friendship (Alexis will tell you that she worked very hard to get Sophie to come to that conclusion...lol). With MANY challenges wrapped into a 4 year secret, we persisted towards the life we wanted with one another, out in the open and with the support of our incredible family and friends. Near the end of September 2017, we decided to talk to our immediate family and closest friends before taking our relationship public. We were overwhelmed with so much love and comfort, we could not have asked for more incredible people to be apart of our lives. So much has changed since then, for the better, and we are so excited but also so in shock that this is actually our life...with all of you incredible people standing by our side in support and love.

After talking to one of her best friends Kenzie for pictures as well as both her & Alexis's parents, it was a go. As most people know, one of our favorite places to visit together is Traverse City, so Sophie knew that would be a perfect spot for the question of a lifetime. For most of their relationship, Alexis had always said how she would be the one to propose, so Sophie knew if she could keep in the secret, she could completely surprise Alexis!
