We met online in 2022, and from the first moment on, everything just clicked. There were no awkward silences, no doubts—just an instant understanding that we were meant to be together. Our conversations flowed easily, and we quickly discovered we had so much in common. Whether it was our shared love for women’s soccer, the outdoors, or our mutual passion for travel, it felt like we’d known each other far longer than we actually had. To this day we feel like we have been together for an entire lifetime, and we are so happy that our story is just getting started.


Since meeting, we’ve been on a crazy adventure together. Rachel graduated with her Doctor of Physical Therapy and started her first job as a Physical Therapist at the Cleveland Clinic, while Lexi began her Master’s in History. Even with busy schedules, we’ve made time to create memories together—whether visiting Rachel's sister, Lauren, and her girlfriend Liss, in Colombia, going on a much-awaited trip to Peru, or spontaneous road trips for concerts, we’re always planning our next adventure. And we’re just getting started—next up: our dream honeymoon to Ireland. We love sharing these experiences, whether it’s exploring new hiking trails, discovering new cultures, or simply wandering through a city hand in hand.


We always joke that we are in sync (we take turns sharing a single brain cell). We both even ended up proposing within one week of each other while Lauren was home. After eloping on October 11, 2024, we look forward to sharing our first year of marriage with those of you we love most, closing the first year of this chapter in the best way possible.


When we’re not off on an adventure, you’ll find us testing out our new hobby of rock climbing, planning our next trip, spending time with our families, or simply enjoying time at home with our dog, Ava, and our cat, Finn. Our newly purchased house has become our favorite place to relax and grow together. It's in these quiet moments that we truly appreciate how effortlessly our lives have intertwined.


We can't wait to see what the future holds as we continue to build this beautiful life together, and we look forward to celebrating with all of you soon!
