Lexi and Tommy’s story started long before they even knew it. They grew up on Long Island, had tons of mutual friends, and were always just one connection away—but somehow, they never met. Their worlds were already linked in the funniest ways. Tommy was cousins with one of Lexi’s closest friends, and Lexi’s childhood best friend just so happened to date Tommy’s best friend. The connections kept piling up, making it almost ridiculous that they hadn’t crossed paths sooner. Then came the summer of 2018. On a trip to the Jersey Shore, Tommy really noticed Lexi, and after that weekend, he couldn’t stop thinking about her. He begged their friends to set them up, but Lexi kept brushing it off—“Um, no, that’s Mary-Kate’s cousin!” (Though she may have thought he was very handsome.) By the end of the summer, they both ended up at the same birthday party, and this time, Tommy made sure Lexi noticed him. And just like that, everything clicked. Once they started dating, Tommy would hop on a train into the city just to pick Lexi up from her office, even when he wasn't working in the city that day. They fill their time with dinner dates, bike rides, concerts, travelling, and plenty of ice cream runs. But the real game-changer? Tommy turned Lexi into a Mets fan. Now, they spend most of the spring and summer at Citi Field, just five minutes from their apartment in Queens, cheering on the team win or lose with their clan of Mets-loving friends. They made it official on November 11, 2018, and from their very first laugh together, they just knew. Five years later, Tommy proposed at The Lannin in Eisenhower Park—the very place where, on October 24, 2025, they’ll say “I do” with all the family and friends who brought them together. Some love stories are just meant to be!
