Our Wedding

Like most millennial love stories, Alexa &amp; Bobby met on a dating app. She swiped right and he responded with, “I’m gonna steal your dog!” And like any dog mom, Alexa told him.. “you wish! Tucker is a momma’s boy!” Little did she know that Bobby (aka now dad) would turn into Tucker’s favorite. They chatted for a few weeks on the dating app and Bobby finally asked Alexa out for cocktails. A couple days went by and as Bobby would say, “like any smart man, he made her wait.” She waited a couple days and when she didn’t hear back Alexa asked again, “So how about those cocktails?” He apologized for stalling and then proceeded to ask for her number. Which he then made her wait AGAIN to receive a text message. Approaching her 30th birthday Alexa was starting to get discouraged Bobby wouldn’t be her prince charming. Alexa’s “cousin” Dylan gave her the courage to send one last message, which said, “are you ever going to use that number?” And it WORKED!!&nbsp; Bobby finally texted Alexa and asked her “Alexa, play music!” And even though she still had to wait another two weeks to see his handsome face in person… it was worth it!! They met at the Merchant Tavern in Akron, OH and as most would say, the rest is history! &nbsp;

Alexa, play music!
