Carlie and Alex both went to University of Massachusetts at Amherst, however their love story didn't begin until several years after they had graduated. When they reconnected, they both knew that they were each others forever. Over several years and across state lines, Carlie and Alex dated long distance for the first few years of their relationship, visiting often and building lasting memories. Finally, the two decided to take the next step and move in together - making Florida their home. Through thick and thin Carlie and Alex have been by each other’s side building a life together and growing as an unbreakable pair. These two couldn’t imagine loving anyone more (except their dog Moose of course). During their trip to Key West for Carlie to run her first half marathon, one evening as the sun set over Fort Zachary Taylor beach, Alex said to Carlie, “you know I love you” and asked her to marry him. ##
