Two years ago, Amanda and Taylor’s love story kicked off at the Ocean Drive bar in Sea Isle, thanks to their two rowdy friend groups deciding to merge for a night of fun on Landis Avenue. Taylor spotted Amanda across the bar and, convinced he was being smooth, introduced himself.

There was just one little problem: Taylor somehow got it in his head that her name was Alex. So, all night long, he kept calling her “Alex” while Amanda, slightly amused, didn’t have the heart to correct him.

Despite the mix-up, Amanda and Taylor hit it off immediately. As they chatted more, they realized they had both just moved to towns only 20 minutes apart from one another back home. It felt like fate had been nudging them together all along.

The next morning, Taylor couldn’t stop talking to his friends about the amazing girl he’d met. “Guys, I think I’m in love,” he declared, only to be met with laughter. Amanda, who found the whole thing hilarious, agreed to a date. What started as a funny mix-up turned into a deep connection, filled with inside jokes and a lot of laughs. Two years later, they’re still laughing about that first night—and Taylor hasn’t called her Alex since.
