It all began with a flirty and friendly message on Hinge in December 2021. Early on in our conversations, we discovered a deep connection through our shared values, especially our close family ties and our adoration for God. What started as paragraph-long exchanges quickly moved to FaceTime video calls (mostly to confirm we were both real, because let’s be honest, its crazy out there!). After confirming we were in fact real people, Alex felt confident asking Ambrosia out on a first date.

We met in person for the first time on January 7, 2022. Alex picked Ambrosia up from her house, opened all doors, and was the ultimate gentleman. They went to dinner at a Japanese Steakhouse, Salt & Charcoal, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. After six hours of intimate conversation, 10 missed calls from Ambrosia's mom and best friend, and endless laughter, we both left thinking, “Did I just find my forever life partner?” From that moment on, our connection only deepened, our conversations grew richer, our laughs louder and our mutual love increased every single day.

One afternoon in May 2022, Alex officially asked Ambrosia to be his girlfriend. With sweet affirmations from him, genuine reciprocation from her, and a mutual desire to give our all, we became an official couple and our adventure together truly began! Since that day we've traveled to different countries, gone to many plays, concerts, restaurants, sporting events, and have fallen in love with the world around us... while falling deeper in love with each other. We've gotten to know one another's families and friend groups and they've supported us along the way. Not to mention, we’ve even embraced each other’s passions, especially Alex’s enthusiasm for his beloved New York Knicks- Ambrosia is now a die hard fan! As our lives blended together, we fell even more deeply in love, day by day.

We are so excited to get married and we can't wait to see how God continues to bless and enrich our lives as we journey to officially becoming one.
