Roula and Alex first met at Bottleworks for a beer, but things were going so well that they decided to go to dinner and then ended up going drinks after. While they were at the Octopus bar, someone from across the way started shouting at them, "Kiss her!", and so, they had their first kiss. Before they knew it, the shouting guy and his girl came and sat next to Roula and Alex, and he introduces himself as Alex. Turns out he was also from Aurora, CO, what are the odds? He was visiting from Boston for some convention for the week. About a week later, on the couple's second date in a completely different neighborhood in town, who walks in? The other Alex!

They had a fun weekend planned in Vancouver, BC for President's day weekend, including a dinner reservation at the Blue Water Café. They decided to bring a bottle of wine to the restaurant with them, however little did Roula know that Alex had a detour planned. Alex had tried hiding the bottle of wine so that he wouldn't have to carry it to the beach, but Roula's attention to detail was too sharp and she noticed the bottle wasn't on the table anymore. She made him find the bottle and bring it with them, and awkwardly carried it while walking down Sunset Beach. Alex wanted to get a photo to commemorate the moment he proposed. When they came across another couple, he offered to take their picture with the sunset in the background in exchange for them taking a photo as well. Alex chickened out. They kept walking down the beach until Alex found the courage and turned to Roula and popped the question. Roula immediately said yes, and Alex handed Roula the box with the ring and said, "Here."
