During their desert bridal photos in Phoenix, Arizona Amanda and Alex told me: “Our original wedding in Hawaii was completely turned upside down from Covid. We ended up eloping at a court house last minute, our family and friends were not able to attend. We were finally able to celebrate in September with everyone. We enjoyed lounging around the pool before getting ready. While we got our first look pictures done, our family/friends magically turned the backyard of our rental house into an Hawaiian paradise. His parents made an Italian feast from scratch. It was more than I could have dreamed.”

After meeting through a mutual friend, Alex then later proposed to Amanda on their 4 year anniversary! She said: “Plans didn’t work out the way we thought, we both worked late that day. I made a nice meal at home and got all cozied up in my PJs. When he got home, he immediately looked nervous. Not even 5 minutes pass before he says, “I got you a present, close your eyes” I opened my eyes and there was the beautiful ring! I cried for a good 5 minutes before even answering!”

The two of them love to travel together, and even when on their first trip with one another to Disneyland after being together for 4 months! Amanda and Alex plan to visit as many countries as possible and continue to plan more adventures in the future!

Cheers!

Allison
