We met through Zachary's sister, Michaela. She mentioned to me one day at work that he saw a picture of me on Facebook from a recent girl's trip and thought I was pretty and wanted to meet. We initially met at a game night with a group of friends then a coffee date to get to know each other. Our first official date was on the Fourth of July, I mean sparks did fly :) Six years later and here we are, planning the special day! - Alexandra

We were supposed to go to the zoo a couple of days before Christmas one night after work with family and our niece, Noelle, who the whole trip was mostly planned around. "I had no idea what was going to happen and I didn't think anything about it much less dress for the occasion" - Alexandra. The zoo had a light show which worked perfectly for the occasion and pictures. We went to stand by a set of steps while watching our niece play and next thing you know, Zachary is popping the question. You obviously know the rest...
