Our story begins a decade ago in the summer of 2014! We met at a mutual friend's house for an end of school year party. Even though we both caught each other's eye, it wasn't until September when another mutual friend set us up together that we started to talk and eventually date. After a few romantic dates including italian ices, mini golfing and even SAT prep, Daniel finally popped the question and "made things official" on 10/10/14.

We spent the next 9 years growing up together, evolving from two awkward teenagers into fully functioning adults. As we grew together in age, so did our love. We were there for each other in some of the best parts of our lives: watching each other graduate high school, attending the same college at Binghamton University, starting our careers and other important milestones. It is such a privilege that we have so many memories to look back on.

Then after nine LONG years, Daniel finally popped another question on 9/6/23. It's safe to say we all knew the answer Alexa was going to give. We now get to tackle life together as an engaged couple and eventually, as husband and wife. To think, all because two teenagers fell in love!
